On this episode of the Return to Gilead Sunday Special, Ryan and Michael take a look at “Missing Pieces, Part 4” from Keys for Kids’ Red Rock Mysteries and compare it to the book by Jerry Jenkins and Chris Fabry, answering some questions from earlier in the excellent four-parter.

As tensions rise on Gilead Lane and John Fornof brings Season 10 of Beyond Gilead to a close, Michael and Ryan reflect on yet another episode discussing God’s will: episodes 136 and 137 (10-11 and 10-12), “Hold Lightly, Parts 1 and 2.” In this first part, some healthy division leads to good discussion on the theme of holding things lightly before God, whether John’s action merited his lesson, and a short debate on eminent domain.

An extended review is the only recourse for the one episode of Gilead that made a host angry. Ryan and Michael run a marathon of a podcast to determine just how broken is episode 135 (10-10) of Beyond Gilead, “Love Is a Many-Splintered Thing.”

Another guest episode! Ellie Hope, a friend from Liberty, joins Michael and Ryan to break down Anna Townsend’s solo outing, episode 134 (10-9) of Beyond Gilead, “Going Through the Motions.” The two avid fans and the one new fan talk about the loose connections between the two halves of the story, whether Rachel Townsend’s faith is actually cause for concern, the inversion of a daughter concerned for her mom, and the strange lack of conflict for the main character.

Warning: The following episode of Return to Gilead, a response to episode 81 of the Worst of All Possible Worlds Podcast, “Ease On Down Gilead Lane,” contains profuse albeit censored swearing, immaculately constructed strawmen, and massive amounts of cringe. Listen at your own risk as Michael and Ryan react and respond to this miserable, pathetic, and idiotic episode of Gilead hate.
