In this podventure, we discuss the episode “The Meaning of Sacrifice,” in which the Barclay family (mostly at the impetus of George) decide to give up TV for a month as a sacrifice to the Lord. This means no soap operas for Donna and no video games for Jimmy–the very things they cannot live without! Presented with loopholes, the kids feel guilty and conflicted. Time to learn the true meaning of fasting, I mean sacrifice! Also, family TV culture, fasting, Lent, and other spiritual disciplines.
