Episode 237: Despair, Life without Hope

In episode TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY-SEVEN, Mike, Wade, and Greg discuss despair, disenchantment, acedia, and other despair-related things. This is the third part of a three-part series on death, disappointment, and despair. While the topic sounds morbid, we pray you find the episodes encouraging. We hope you enjoy the episode!
