After a few weeks break due to life happening, we return and talk about the coldest winter we can remember for a long time which is especially pertinent given Bob’s visual statement of constructing a mock tent city on his front lawn (more info to come). We discuss a new report published in the paper this week discussing areas in the most financial difficulty (watch this space for a visual), and the responsibility of churches and other religious denominations to care for it’s local population. We look at the appropriateness of world youth day spending and recent protests at the Olympics in Beijing regarding human rights abuses in Tibet.

We’d love some feedback via any of our contact points. Check out Bob’s Facebook page with a group for The Father Bob Show Podcast.
