In this episode Daniel and Nate wrap up their reflections on the story of Mars Hill. There are so many lessons to be taken away from the Mars Hill story and we hope that our discussions have helped you process this information along with us. We hope that it helps us all reflect on what a truly godly leader looks like and our own obsession and attraction to celebrity, power, and pride. Power corrupts and and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Let's all remember that as we build communities of faith and make decisions about systems of accountably. Churches can do so much damage and there can be a legacy of dead bodies under and behind the bus, but that's not what we are called to, and by the grace of God I hope we can slow down, value people over organizations, value faithfulness over efficiency, and be people whose fruit ultimately is Jubilee, freedom, and shalom.

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
