This week on the Ask A Christian Podcast, Nate attempts to discuss the Vatican's new ruling on Mary (spoiler: she's not 'Co-Redemptrix,' but they're still... Catholic about it). But first, the team tackles the horrifying new trend of turning IVF embryos into jewelry, which is apparently a thing now. This somehow leads to a discussion on the origins of baseball, before a guest joins for a marathon session of 'Stump the Christian.' We tackle all the classics: If babies go to heaven, why is abortion wrong? Are all Bible versions (KJV, NIV, ESV) just hopelessly different? What about the "contradiction" of the crucifixion time? (Mark 15 vs. John 19) Who really wrote the Gospels? And why is Steph allowed to talk if 1 Timothy 2:11 exists? We also cover the theological purpose of the 'Hail Mary' and Steph's harrowing story of being counseled to terminate a pregnancy. It's a full episode of Debunking Bible Contradictions: The Crucifixion, Bible Versions, and Vatican's Mary Ruling.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
