Introduction and Welcome
Pastor Michael Zarling, Pastor Andy Mueller, Pastor Zachary VonDeylen
  1. Pastor Michael Zarling

    Welcome to our episode of Men Who Understood the Times. I'm Michael with Zach and Andy. And apologies for getting this episode out late. We recorded it almost a week ago, and then we lost it, e- either due to operator error or demons. So it was one of those two. Uh, so now we're-

  2. Pastor Andy Mueller

    It could have also been age. Age, Mike.

  3. Pastor Michael Zarling

    Yes. Well, that goes with operator error. Uh, so, uh, we are re-recording, uh, Revelation chapter 6. And our disclaimer is we're not talking for, uh, our churches or our church body, uh, nor the Lutheran theologians that have gone before us, like Papa Miller or Becker or Lenski or maybe even for ourselves sometimes. So, uh, Zach, what are you drinking this afternoon?

  4. Pastor Zachary VonDeylen

    I have a new kind of soda, Olipop. It is a prebiotic soda, so it's good for your gut and digestion. It's only, uh, two grams of added sugar, but it, it tastes like a normal soda. Uh, so you gotta ditch the Mountain Dew, ditch the A&W Root Beer, and get yourself an Olipop.

  5. Pastor Michael Zarling

    Andy, what are you drinking?

  6. Pastor Andy Mueller

    Well, since Zach is repping the brand without a sponsorship, I, too, thought I'd rep a brand without a sponsorship, and that is Liquid Death. Liquid Death, kill... Or actually, murder your thirst. This looks like something nefarious, but it's actually just sparkling water that tastes really, really good. And, uh, my wife and I don't splurge on this kind of thing, but for a special occasion yesterday, somebody got me this as a gift. So really thankful and, uh, gonna give it a shot today.

  7. Pastor Michael Zarling

    Yeah. And mine is made directly from God. It's just sparkling water, uh, right out of the tap with, with some ice. Uh, so I am-

  8. Pastor Andy Mueller

    H- had you asked me, Mike-

  9. Pastor Michael Zarling

    I am running down-

  10. Pastor Andy Mueller

    Had you asked-

  11. Pastor Michael Zarling

    Yeah

  12. Pastor Andy Mueller

    ... had you asked me, I would have given you living water.
