We slow down the break neck pace of the Story of London, to take the time to stop and look at how, in practical terms, London WORKED as a city; how all the disparate parts of it, the mayors, the Aldermen, the mass of poor, managed to coexist and function. In a chapter that draws upon the awesome work of historian Barbara Hanawalt, we explore how the city functioned as a living space… while setting up for a crazy few years ahead and dealing with a huge, high profile fire!

Why doesn't St. Louis have its own hot dog, like the iconic Chicago dog? That question was on restauranter Steve Ewing's mind when he created a March-madness style bracket and asked St. Louisans to choose the hot dog that best represented their city.

In this encore presentation, Ewing shares how to make a St. Louis hot dog and the inspiration behind its ingredients.

Welcome to another episode and the beginning of a brand new series called Rooted. With the opening message of the series, I would like to introduce Brendan Alderman. With a sermon titled "Growing Strong in Christ," Here is brother Brendan.
