Episode 128 - We're Baaaack

Skiing is fun. Apparently. (And so is pretending we didn’t ghost you for six months.)

Episode 128 is a pure catch-up chaos special: Jesse, Jen, and Evan reconvene to explain where the heck they’ve been, why the show went dark, and what it might look like to keep this thing alive from afar.

We dig into:

• The “we’ve been busy” recap (translation: life exploded) 
• Evan being “back”… but also not back… but also kind of back 
• The plan: try this again for ~6 months, likely one episode a month, while figuring out remote recording logistics 
• Grassroots updates: new building, Craig as part-time pastor, plus others speaking 
• A quick Lone Canary plug: new album Dime Store Horses, vinyl, and a potential CO/NM/(maybe) Dakotas tour route
• Evan’s update: now lead pastor at Morning Star Friends Church (Quaker), adapting “missional community” thinking in a more conservative, wealthy suburban context 
• And the big teaser: Evan is writing a book tentatively titled Igniting Suburbia about missional life in the suburbs 

Then, because it’s us, we debate whether “AF” is still cool and brainstorm renaming the show into something extremely unserious. 

So crack open an NA beer, throw a ketchup pun at your friends, and tell us what topics you actually want—because if y’all don’t interact, Jen threatened to quit again.
