Welcome to Mortification of Spin, the casual conversation about things that count.

With Carl Truman, Todd Pruitt, and Amy Bird, Mortification of Spin is a weekly podcast from the Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals.

Let's join this week's conversation. All right, so my co-host is Amy Bird.

My co-host, Todd Pruitt, is here with me today.

And we're missing.

We're missing one of one of our team. He is reflecting quietly in another

room. Here we're trying to kick off a day of podcast recordings and Carl's still working on

his quiet time. He is actually we're covering for him. The truth is that Carl has recently finally had those hair plugs put in, and he's in quite a bit of pain.

He can't put on the headset because his forehead is so sensitive.

But within months, he is going to have a full head of lush black hair.

And we're excited for him.

We are excited for him. we're excited for it.

We're excited for the debut. We are excited for. I have a party.

Yeah.

It's going to be very symmetrical for a while because of the way they do those plugs.

But after a couple of years, apparently it looks kind of natural.

Kind of like after you plant the lawn, it takes a couple of seasons before it looks natural.

Same thing with what top of Carl's head is going to look like. Yeah, right now he's really meditating and praying on the results for that and asking the Lord to help with that issue.

And so that, you know, Todd and I thought, well, that's a good topic to talk about, really, is the whole idea of our quiet times.

Yes, yes.

So the question I have is, and what's often connected to this, is what does it take really

to be godly?
