There is a widespread belief among Christians that drinking alcohol, in and of itself, is a sin. But, is this truly the case? Is drinking alcohol a sin? Can it be used to glorify God? What does the Bible have to say about these things? In today's episode, Seth and Cole discuss these questions, Christian localism, and develop a theology of alcohol (with some help from the Theopolis Institute) all while enjoying the Nut Brown Ale from St. George's Brewing Co. in Hampton, Virginia.
