Des Moines Area Community College

And thank you to Sonic once again for supporting us.

Congratulations to them on finishing back-to-back and belly-to-belly in the DMACC award winners coming in second again nationwide.

That's pretty fantastic.

Somebody says, can you all play Rick's clip yesterday where he got in an argument with Trey Biddy at the end of the segment? Did you hear that?

Yeah, I finished my undergrad in three years, so a little early.

Um, I just had brought in credit, high school credit from DMACC from high school, and it just made sense.

You know, I can, it, I can just finish my undergrad in three years, and the plan was to, you know, do my master's and just be done within four years.

But the business started to gain some attention.

I mean, all those guys in that probably would.

To, to Timoteus's credit here, he is an, a, an Iowa Central grad, not a DMACC grad.

Yeah.

Actually, no, I never graduated from Iowa Central.

And then our second investment into Des Moines Area Community College.

It's...

Des Moines Area Community College, DMACC, is actually the largest college in Iowa.

It's got more students than Iowa State or University of Iowa.

Yeah.

You can learn a skill set.

The idea here is that this buttresses what then both our union and non-union apprenticeship and trade school programs are doing.

So the one we just built and, uh, commissioned out here at DMACC does welding.

Mm

... government student loans, but then I apparently had, like, a small loan through DMACC that I didn't know about.

Oh, nice.

[laughs]

[laughs] Yeah.

Or anything in the mail.

I mean, you don't use your DMACC email anymore.

True.

We need to talk about this.

DMACC was there.

DMACC in the house.

Adam Bush came in for the show from California, which is great.

Chris and Andy, Lucy, Brandon, Bentley was there.

We depict the face of Christ constantly in the history of the church through iconography and art.

I remember something DMACC said about liturgical art that it must be, or sacred art, that must be particular enough to be recognizable, but universalizable enough to bear the mystery or something like that.

I cannot try to pin down too much like exactly what this looked like or you know even the gospels themselves are somewhat like that the way that they tell the story so vividly but in very few details you know which leaves all that artistic license when you you put it in a medium like film where you have to kind of tell this narrative that shot by shot like what happened who said what um like the wedding feast at cana you get like two or three things that happened or that people said, but that story can bear so much or carry so much meaning.

mediating, you know, the presence of Christ, the logic of, of the gospel.
