We've got a great episode today. We're going to back up a little bit and go back to tiptoeing through the tulip. We've talked about the T of total inability. But now let's talk about the U of Unconditional Election. It's going to be a lot of fun. Let's dive in.

You answer all my questions. You can never tell no lies. You're always telling me what it's all about, but some don't listen to your
