Today, we dive into Russell Brand's recent baptism and conversion to Christianity and whether it is a reason for hope. Brand has faced public criticism due to his past anti-Christian opinions, sexual assault allegations, and his current use of tarot cards. We discuss what these things mean for the genuineness of his faith and whether Christians can dabble in new age practices to begin with. Plus, in her latest book, South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R) detailed a time she shot her dog dead in a gravel pit. We discuss this strange decision.
