Summary
We've reached the end of 2025, so we thought it's a good time to answer questions from the Holy Post community. Phil, Skye, and Kaitlyn cover a wide assortment of issues, from how they decompress after a difficult podcast, and how they pick which politicians to interview, to their favorite movies, and who is best at changing a tire. They also tackle theological questions about the nature of grace, the limitations we will still have in the new creation, and why demons may not be fallen angels. They also give their predictions for 2026. Along the way, Phil has weird ideas about hair, Skye wants to be a mango, and Kaitlyn makes a big announcement.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Holy Post. We've reached the end of 2025, so we thought it's a good time to answer questions from the Holy Post community. Today, Phil Caitlin and I cover a wide assortment of issues from how we decompress after a difficult podcast to how we pick which politicians to interview. We also talk about our favorite movies and who's the best at changing attire. We tackle theological |
| 0:22.3 | questions about the nature of grace, the limitations we still have in the new creation, |
| 0:27.0 | and why demons may not be fallen angels. We also give our predictions for 2026. Along the way, |
| 0:33.6 | Phil has some weird ideas about hair, I talk about being a mango, and Caitlin makes a big announcement. |
| 0:40.0 | Before we jump in, I just want to express my gratitude to everyone who's tuned into our content |
| 0:44.4 | and especially the Holy Post Plus subscribers who've made it all possible with their support. |
| 0:49.3 | We've been able to create more shows, more videos, and host more events in 2025 than ever before. |
| 0:55.8 | Thank you for being part of this journey with us and for making the Holy Post Media community |
| 1:00.2 | in oasis of hope and humor when so much of the church seems captivated by despair on one side |
| 1:06.0 | and deception on the other. Here is episode 701. |
| 1:11.0 | Hey there, Merry Christmas. Welcome to, is this our last episode of the year? |
| 1:17.2 | The last new episode. The last new episode of the year. Next week, we'll be airing an old |
| 1:22.8 | episode. So look forward to that. That'll be very exciting. Or a Holy Post Plus exclusive episode we are giving |
| 1:29.0 | people a chance to listen to. That's what I meant to say. I meant to say what Mike said, |
| 1:34.8 | because that's correct. And I was wrong. But we're here. Sky's here. Hi. Hi, Sky. Hi. Hi. I'm still here. I'm still here. I only get one high. And that's it. |
| 1:46.9 | Okay. And if it comes ahead, then I'm just out. And Caitlin, who I will not use her middle name. |
| 1:53.3 | Oh, thank you, Phil. Yeah. Hi, Caitlin. Hi. Hi. Those of you watching on YouTube are probably |
| 1:58.2 | going to notice. Hey, Caitlin's hair straight. What's going on? I didn't know this was going to be so exciting for everyone. But everyone today has |
| 2:05.8 | commented on it. It's noticeable. I don't think I have. Thank you. You noticed. You notice. I just, |
| 2:11.9 | I don't tend, I try to avoid commenting on women's appearances randomly. Ooh. |
