Summary

That's right, it's time for your favorite group of pumped guys who've been traveling from church to church for over 40 years doing feats of strength, The Power Team! Bonnie missed the huge event at church where they came and blew. us. tweens. away. The ripping of phone books, the lifting of heavy weights, the bending of fry pans. And then a testimony of how they serve Christ? These were our super heroes. They're still around 40 years later with dozens of break-off groups. Vice does it again with a great article covering some of the scandals and mishaps. Patheos does another great one. This is an episode we've wanted to do for a long time. We feel sorry for people who didn't grow up in the church and get to partake in this beefcake parade. See pics on our website.
