Summary
As disciples of Christ, our speech matters. While the expression “holy crap” has become commonplace in our culture today, Jeff challenges us to re-evaluate the use of this expression by explaining the meaning of the word “holy” and the reverence we should have for it.
Snippet from the Show
Part of being a disciple of Christ is being able to clearly distinguish between that which is holy and that which is unholy.
