Spare the rod gets thrown around a lot, but it hits different when you are the one holding it. Joseph A Norman, Talor Nunez and Lonnie Edwards get honest about delayed obedience, why yelling undercuts your wife, and what the rod actually meant. Then it moves to the Gospels, where four writers with four audiences tell one story, and the small differences between them are exactly why you can trust them. Barbed wire theology, kids in the backyard, and a whole lot of gratitude.
