For the Second Sunday in Easter, Delmer and John hold forth on the meaning of resurrection -- a theme that will continue for 6 weeks. Special musical guest is the inimitable John Prine performing (not exactly live, we don't think) When I Get to Heaven.

Easter Sunday (Resurrection of the Lord), Year A

For Easter Sunday and the Resurrection of the Lord, Delmer and John get back to basics. There is fear and great joy on the first Easter -- and, apparently, that is still true today! Natalie Cole performs Everlasting Love. 

Palm/Passion Sunday for Year A (April 5, 2020)

For the Sunday of the Palms/Passion (except there aren't any palms in Matthew, but who's worried?) the Bubbas talk texts and preaching in a continued troubling time. Michael W. and Deborah Smith provide the musical background with Shine On Us. 

Special Edition: Pastoring Through a Pandemic

The Bubbas and some special guest pastors talk about "being and doing church when the world has changed" -- a live talk session recorded on March 23, 2020. Great ideas to be found here; we all learned a great deal from each other! We'll do it again in a couple of weeks, because things are changing fast! Closing theme is Blest Be the Tie That Binds by John Fawcett and Hans Georg Nagali.

The Fifth Sunday in Lent, Year A (March 29, 2020)

For the Fifth Sunday in Lent, the Bubbas continue to reflect on the texts in the midst of trouble -- which is why we have them, eh? Special musical guests are Chicago performing 25 or 6 to 4.

The Fourth Sunday in Lent, Year A (March 22, 2020)

How do we preach the texts for the Fourth Sunday in Lent in the midst of the coronavirus? The Bubbas don't have all the answers, but they're going to give it a rip on today's show! Special musical guest is Sister Vestal Goodman performing God Walks the Dark Hills. 

The Third Sunday in Lent, Year A (March 15, 2020)

For the Third Sunday in Lent, the Bubbas are talking water and the presence of God. It's pretty cool (and clear?) Anyhow, special musical guests are the Sons of the Pioneers performing Cool Water.

The Second Sunday in Lent, Year A (March 8, 2020)

For the Second Sunday in Lent, "Father Abraham" receives the call and Nicodemus asks pointed questions of Jesus. Where will it all end? The Bubbas want to know! Special musical guests are Keith and Krysten Getty performing By Faith.
