Ep15: Being Truly Committed (1/1988)

Hey girl (or boy). We here at This Fire just want you to know that (*bites lip*) we’re ready to finally settle down and be truly committed to you, the listener. What is it that gave us the courage to make such a grown up decision about our pod/pod-ee relationship? Why it was none other than having watched Fire By Nite’s January 1988 episode, all about ‘Being Truly Committed’. With the help of Blaine and crew we’ve gained a whole new perspective on how to demonstrate commitment. With great strategies like: Pray more. And “submit totally” to your master. And “be a prisoner of Jesus” (no really, that’s a real quote from the episode). All this hot commitment action PLUS, we review part 1 of a very special 2-part Family First where Doug’s girlfriend Cheryl finds her soul hanging. In. The. Balance.1988 is going to be a wild year on Fire By Nite, and it starts RIGHT HERE on today’s episode of This Fire.
