| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Mortification of Spin, a casual conversation about things that count with Carl Truman, |
| 0:23.5 | Todd Pruitt, and Amy Bird. Mortification of Spin is a weekly podcast from the Alliance of Confessing |
| 0:30.3 | Evangelicals. Amy, Todd, and Carl are joined today by Dr. Ken Hughes to talk about preaching and pastoral |
| 0:37.2 | ministry. Their discussion, |
| 0:39.1 | taped in front of a live audience, covers lots of grounds, so buckle up. And stay tuned after the |
| 0:44.7 | conversation to find out how to get a free MP3 from the Alliance. Good afternoon, everybody. As advertised, we have the Mortification of Spin team with us with Dr. Hughes for a panel discussion this afternoon. |
| 1:15.6 | Todd Pruitt on the end down there, lead pastor of Covenant Presbyterian Church, Harrisonburg, Virginia. |
| 1:22.6 | Amy Byrd, author of Housewife Theologian, who was brought on to this radio broadcast, first of all, |
| 1:32.5 | by being interviewed about her book and was found to be so knowledgeable and engaging that she |
| 1:37.8 | was invited to be a regular. And then we know about Dr. Truman. |

| 1:49.2 | I'm paid to be here at my own institution. |
| 1:51.8 | But it's a real pleasure to be able to record the podcast at Westminster Assembly. |
| 1:56.6 | I'd like to start by expressing thanks on behalf of the Alliance for the invitation to come and do this here today. |
| 2:04.2 | The podcast started just under two years ago, really, almost as a semi-joke between Todd and myself. |
| 2:11.0 | Originally, it was just myself, Todd, Mike Harris, one computer and two microphones sitting in a room in Church of the Savior. |
| 2:18.0 | The philosophy of the podcast was we wanted to be, we really did want to be the gentleman amateurs, |
| 2:23.7 | emphasis on the amateur rather than the gentleman, I think, on the whole of the podcast world. |
| 2:29.5 | Every podcast is unscripted. We fly by the seat of our pants, hence the feeling of amateurism |
| 2:39.5 | and total lack of professionalism that frequently comes through. Tim has already introduced |
| 2:46.0 | Todd, but I would like to add that we like to think of him at the Alliance as the reform theological equivalent of meatloaf. |
| 2:53.6 | That's the rock star, not the food stuff. |
