It's PART 2 of a four-part Christmas series. Pastor Josh Walters and host Joey Svendsen talk about the classic cartoon, The Grinch Who Stole Christmas. With the ugly, green guy as the backdrop of the conversation, Josh and Joey discuss the beauty behind the gift of salvation, how most people have "some grinch" in them, and how hurtful people have typically been hurt in their past. The two also talk faith and grief, as Josh’s family is experiencing their first Christmas without a particular loved one. He and Joey wrap up their conversation by offering encouragement to those who are grieving and offer advice heading into the holidays.
At the top of the episode, the host crew discusses the various remakes of "Grinch Movies" and reminisce on Christmases past.
