We are early in the early stages of the quarantine. We might feel different a few weeks from now! But we are enjoying family time.

Krista mentioned a series of article by New Testament scholar, Dr. Craig Keener:

Easy answer.
Question #6: Why does the Catholic Bible have more books?

We actually covered this topic on a previous show.
Question #10: How do you start podcast?
Well, in our case, get Krista to trick you into it..
Question #11: What are your thoughts about healing with a handkerchief or laying on a person?
There are biblical precedents for this. Is it still a thing? We have some thoughts.
Question #12: Is there an objective standard for beauty?
We actually had a great discussion with our friend and artist, Rachel Shockey, about this very question. (And this reminded us, we should get her on again.)
Viewers may also enjoy the classic video series from Francis Shaeffer, "How Shall We Then Live?"
We also mentioned the classic book by H. R. Rookmaaker, Modern Art and the Death of a Culture..
Question #13: Is it the End of the World?
No discussion about the end of the world would be complete without a mention of the classic Christian film, A Thief in the Night. Or its 90s equivalent, Left Behind.
Also, Krista has made some recent videos on this topic.

We know that many of you are feeling overwhelmed about the sudden prospect of homeschooling. Viewers share some resources.
