  • S3E4 - Trouble Don't Last Always
    Nov 18 2025

    Rev. Bowman and Dr. Francis dissect this phrase from the vantage point of grappling with today's disturbing political times. This discussion weaves in and out of past and present examples of how to process the inevitable troubles and storms of life whether the catastrophes are unnecessarily created by humans or acts of nature. This phrase--steeped in a scriptural tradition–is both realistic and somewhat comforting as a coping mechanism in overwhelming times.

    This idiom seems to be newer than some discussed by the hosts in the past.

    Episode Notes

    This episode considers “bad words” Southern style. How did you learn to express frustration? What expletives did you hear as a child, if any? Did your folks say “cuss” or “curse”? Yes, there's a big difference! This lively conversation delves into the relationship between foul language or colorful expressions deployed on the home front today and when the hosts were growing up.
