Hey, everybody. Thanks for tuning in to the recovering fundamentalist podcast. We're your exhausted host,

Nathan Kravat, Brian Edwards. I'm J.C. Groves. And I say exhausted because, guys, we are right here

at the end of an incredible week here in Israel. Sitting in the Dan Hotel in Jerusalem.

Yeah.

As Sabbath begins.

We just finished an amazing Sabbath or Shabbat meal.

Yeah.

Wow.

So delicious.

Everything I've put in my mouth has been delicious.

But then tonight, just the atmosphere even seems to be more

celebrative yeah than even at other times and then to eat with a family who

explained to us what this celebration means it's it's just been incredible this

whole week has been absolutely amazing I am tired yes I don't think I've walked this much in a long time, but it's been so good.

Everything in Israel is uphill. I really believe that everything's uphill. It doesn't snow here.

It hasn't snowed here this week, but everything's been walking up here. But it has rained. Yes, it is. The wind has blown.

Yes. So you mean it wasn't a snowy night when Jesus was born in Bethlehem?

Oh, no.

I'm so, why did you have to do that, Nathan?

I've had that vision my whole life.

We grew in Santa Claus last year, so now we were just chipping away at Tritions.

We just did it again.
