OPC cool guy Dan Borvan joins us for grievances aired, strength displayed, and hope extolled...at the most wonderful time of the year. Few emerge unscathed from this ecclesial slugfest which veers occasionally into hugfest.

Pastor Mike Abendroth of @NoCoRadio joins us for his take on indie, presby, and coalitional Christianity (or what passes for it) in the Year of Our Lord 2017.

CW talks with New Cal celebrity megablogger Tim Challies and we unleash the first listener emails from our dedicated line. Leave your own message at (865)888-6209. "I ask permission to revise and extend my remarks: In the latest show I said 10% of PCA churches are confessional. This was wrong. "Confessional" was shorthand for Old School/strict subscriptionist. Most/all PCA churches would consider themselves confessional. I also referred to 7-day creationism...of course I meant 6/24 creationism."-- cw
