Today was Mystery Monday, so Joe and I asked a question relating to an interesting survey we read.

Joe and I are back from NRB! It was an incredible trip, but it is good to be back here with you in rainy Ohio. Today was Mystery Monday, which meant the return of the Mystery Box! Since I never get to do Monday shows, Joe let me hide an item in the mystery box! I did do a Monday show with him over Christmas break, and he hid a razor in there, so today it was my turn!
I have to admit, Joe seemed pretty stumped until Lopez called in, but congrats to Lopez from Mt. Vernon who correctly guessed what the item was! He will receive a $5 gift certificate to Troyer’s of Apple Valley! The item was a guitar capo!
Returning from Florida, we have so many points and takeaways from NRB, but one of Joe’s big highlights was listening to Dr. Tony Evans speak on Wednesday night at NRB. To really sum up what Dr. Evans said, Joe said this:
“Part of our call as Christians is to go out and fix what is broken. We can’t sit back and just watch things break, we have to be proactive in fixing what is broken.”
Dr. Evans is on the forefront of racial reconciliation and he really convicted us that evening, which made it a highlight for all 11 of us.
Here’s a link to the recap video I did of our trip! Check it out!
