Summary
Can a pastor enjoy bourbon? It's a question that surprises some people—and it opens the door to a much bigger conversation. In this episode of Two Guys on a Porch, Jason and Bradford welcome pastor, author, and friend Scott Sauls to the porch over a pour of award-winning New Riff Bourbon. What begins as a conversation about bourbon and Christian freedom quickly turns into an honest discussion about friendship, mercy, longing, idolatry, and why the deepest questions of life can never be answered by success alone. Scott also shares insights from his new book, The Mercy King: How the Kindness of Jesus Heals Your Sin, Shame, and Weakness, exploring how God's mercy meets us in our longings, our suffering, and our search for hope. Whether you're a person of faith, someone who has questions about Christianity, or simply enjoy meaningful conversations over a great pour, we think you'll find something worth taking with you. 🥃 Pour a glass.💬 Join the conversation.👍 Like, subscribe, and share with a friend who enjoys thoughtful conversations.
