In this episode of JB's Bible and Bourbon Talk, JB and Fancy Rob discuss how Christians should respond to the culture of outrage. They emphasize the importance of responding with grace, peace, and an overwhelming amount of love, even in the face of anger and outrage. They explore the story of Paul's missionary journey to Ephesus in Acts 19, where he faced opposition and outrage from those who were losing money due to the influence of Christianity. The hosts highlight the need for common sense, cool heads, and truth to prevail in resolving conflicts and diffusing outrage. They remind listeners that the gospel is countercultural, and that Christians should respond differently to the outrage of the culture, seeking to bring peace and love to a world easily stirred up into anger. The episode concludes with the feature pour of Old Scout Smooth Ambler store pick.
