This week, Josh Wood is subbing in for Josh Stothers as our co-host! In this episode, Josh and Jesse discuss how we exploit people in their giftings for the benefit of the Church. What's the healthy tension we need to manage better and how can we more effectively help release people in their giftings rather than driving them to burnout?

This week, Josh and Jesse review the Ex-Adventist subreddit community on Reddit.

In our final installment of our series on Grace in the Old Testament, Josh and Jesse talk about sacrifice. It's a staple throughout the OT narrative, from Genesis to Jesus, Abraham and his descendants sacrificed. In times of peace and times of war, millions of animals over the course of thousands of years were sacrificed to Yahweh. What can we make of this? Is God an advocate for animal cruelty, or is there something else at work here? Website and Blog | Facebook Page | Facebook Group | Instagram Send us an email at burnthehaystackpodcast@gmail.com.
