So we have a very special guest back on the podcast today. Dan Koch, welcome to the

0:06.2

podcast Dan. Thanks for having me back. So we had you on the pot or I was on your

0:10.6

podcast a few years ago and then I used that audio for my

0:15.0

podcast and I recently re-ran that episode and I titled it Progressive

0:19.7

Christianity and the feedback was really great except for one person who on

0:25.1

YouTube I think commented that progressive Christianity is not real

1:25.8

their right but I consider me a Christian so I guess we're at a loggerheads there.

1:31.0

1:38.0

And so I would just say, hey, we could, we could chat about it if you want.

1:43.0
