Welcome to Family Dinner, Take Two! Another member of the OG youth group joins us tonight.
The Family discusses dad's new job in a church and their apprehensions to being involved again.
This episode marks the first of a new series in which the Hineses invite guests to talk about their experiences with church and the role it plays in their life now.
Tonight's guests include a founding member of Mom and Dad's youth ministry and his wife.
Dad poses the question "Which Star Wars character are you?" and the family runs with it and somehow brings religion into it, so it's kind of on topic, right?
Mom picked the topic this time, starting the discussion with the question, "What is sin?"
The family discusses Christian movies: their favorites, their least favorites, and what makes a Christian movie good or bad.
Ethan came with a starting point, which then devolved into rambling and ended with the family's thoughts on revival.
The family started with a question, followed by lots of silences, followed by . . . ?
Bonus points if you make it to the end of the episode.
The family talks about their favorite Christmas traditions, gifts, movies, and memories.
The family discusses whether or not they are grieving their time in ministry -- then things get really interesting. If you've ever thought that the family never argues, this episode disproves that.
The family discusses their years at "the school" and their thoughts about Christian education now.
As mentioned in Episode 29, this week the family designs the perfect basic white girl church, then moves on to another conversation entirely.
This episode started with Dad saying "I'm no good for church," then kind of went from there...as usual.
The family talks about tattoos -- what they have, what they want, what they used to think.
It's just the kids this week! Ethan and Alexia discuss their experiences as PKs and how those experiences have shaped them as adults.
The family discusses Chapters 19-Epilogue of Gentle & Lowly by Dane Ortlund for the LAST TIME.
The family discusses Mom's obsession: serial killers. Mild warning for violence and descriptions of bodily harm.
The family discusses their church pet peeves...from the serious to the downright silly.
The family had great intentions of talking about the good times in church, but, as usual, snowballed pretty quickly into other things.

The family discusses how their Enneagram types played a role in their ministry experiences.
Family Game Night again! The family answers less questions, but somehow still talks just as long?
The family discusses their experiences with Purity Culture and their beliefs about it now.
It's Family Game Night! The family uses "We're Not Really Strangers" to ask (and avoid) some uncomfortable questions.
The family lightens things up a bit by discussing their individual nerdy histories and revealing what finally brought Mom to the Dork Side.
It's another downer (sorry). The family gets real about their personal histories with anxiety and how they deal with stress.
Bit of a heavy episode as the family members each answer the question, "Why did you leave the church?"
An introduction to the Hines family history and what the heck this podcast is gonna be.
