We're back for another pod for March! Firstly, big apologies for the lack of video this month; unfortunately we had some of our equipment stolen. We tried to make up for that by having friend of the Collective Anike join us this month, as well as JC singer Rebekah Young & photographer Anna Howell chipping in.

There's obviously been a lot of talk this past month about physical violence with the Russia-Ukraine war and the Oscars slap, but something that hasn't had a lot of coverage is Wales passing a law that makes any type of smacking illegal. The guys opened discussing their views on physical discipline at home (05:01), which led to a conversation about the different experiences of discipline they each grew up with. Tee highlighted the racial undertones in this law (08:09) and the differences in how different cultures do discipline. Ellen asked the question of what physical discipline actually teaches you (13:07), which led to a conversation around the importance of communication of right and wrong to go along with discipline. 

We had our first guest hot take, in which Anike went straight against the idea of blocking people (27:27), claiming that the popular term "protect your peace" easily leads to a lack of accountability. The guys discussed the concept of burning bridges and how social media has impacted an individuals' responsibility in a relationship (32:35).

The guys then discussed when questioning God becomes a problem (38:05) and the difference between questioning life and questioning the character of God. Nathan mentioned how he feels all the answers he needs are in the Bible (40:05) and the importance of knowing how to read the Bible. This brought Tee to give a breakdown of the book of Job, a prime example of questioning life and God's role in it, and what we can learn from God's response (45:43).

We're really thankful for each and everyone of you guys for rocking with us every month. We want to know your thoughts! Leave a comment and message us with your views and opinions on the topics. See you in April.
