Welcome to the conversations that matter podcast. My name is John Harris. It is a

snowy and sunny day here in upstate New York. We were supposed to have a

blizzard yesterday and it

ended up being a mild snowstorm which is good. No one really wants a

blizzard. Maybe some kids out there who want to go sledding or something

but it is beautiful. The sun sun shining today and I might even

go for a walk a little bit later in the snow I know maybe I'm weird that way

not everyone likes that you know what I should do and I thought about this

cross-country skiing I saw someone

doing that the other day and I thought man that really actually looks pretty fun and I

do downhill skiing I have at least in the past I haven't this year I really need to but I just I never

got into it I never knew anyone who did it at least that I was aware of and that's

something maybe for next winter, I don't know.

But I'll go for a trudge, a little walk in the snow later, hopefully, if the time allows.

I wanted to talk today a little bit about some of the reactions to this Ukraine situation that I have been made

aware of on social media from some evangelical elites which I found interesting.

Well we're going to talk about the ERLC. We're going to talk about a few tweets.

I think it's necessary every once in a while to remind everyone of why I talk about these things,

why you listen when I talk about these things.

things. And it's not for shock value, it's not to just beat up on people,

certainly. It's definitely not because we don't have maybe other things that are

important to do because I know I do it's not to be sensational it's it's not to feel superior about ourselves.
