Scott and Barry return this week for a special episode! Occasionally, the guys will pivot to focus on what the Lord is doing in the lives of friends, loved ones, and co-hosts. This week, Scott enjoys sharing about himself and the work God has called him to do.
Barry makes a podcastorial retraction and talks about egalitarian practices in his household. The central figure for the episode reminds listeners what a prosecuting attorney is, and what they do. Scott explains the relationship between chocolate chip cookies and crimes. Barry asks how many cases Scott reviews, and how many come to trial. Scott talks about how cases are assigned. The guys talk about how Scott trains, equips, and enables his junior colleagues. Barry invites Scott to share the most satisfying aspects of his work, and the most discouraging. Next, Scott praises the excellence of his bride and shares how she bears up under the weight of his work. Barry asks about the election and the dynamics of campaigning. Scott responds by contrasting “running on merit” over against a “smear campaign.” He then speaks about serving in the Lord’s office as a minister of Christ’s justice. The guys clarify that Kyle is not Scott’s manager. Scott and Barry speak about employing the family in campaigning and evangelism. Barry inquires, “What other ways do you think about this role theologically, particularly when it feels heavy and discouraging? How do you process disappointment?” Scott talks about his calling and considers success versus faithfulness, and the necessity of depending on God’s strength in his means of grace. Barry closes with words of encouragement from Psalm 119:142 and asks listeners to pray for Scott. If you are interested in sponsoring 3GT, please email 3gt.xyz@gmail.com for details on how to help!
