Summary

Today, the guys sit down to talk about reigniting one’s spiritual life through self examination. We all, at times, go through periods of spiritual stagnation and coldness. It is, in one way, an interruption in our communion with God. Because communion with God only flourishes when we understand the reality of our sin and God’s grace, we must regularly engage in self examination,(in which we consider our sins) and gospel meditation. One way of examining ourselves is to consider specific sins, in light of Scripture, and how they may be manifesting themselves in our personal lives. So, Joe and Jimmy take a brief look at the “seven deadly sins:” pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath and sloth. Plus, Jimmy quotes Katy Perry, and Joe quotes Axl Rose.
