Juneteenth: Should It Be a National Holiday?
We discuss Juneteenth - the latest addition to our nation’s holy days. We discuss a bit of the history behind the holiday, why we’ve suddenly started hearing it over the last few years, and whether it should be set aside for the entire nation. We also talk about holidays in general, and how this is not a new problem.
One of the first episodes that we recorded was an audio-only episode asking the question, "What Should Christians celebrate?" You can listen to it here:
