    Hidden Obedience with actress Nan Gurley, "The Hiding Place"

    Welcome to the Word Made Digital Podcast!--- A lifetime of daily, hidden obedience. This is the legacy of Dutch watchmaker Corrie Ten Boom, whose heroic efforts saved hundreds of Jewish lives during the German occupation of the Netherlands in WWII. It was not at a small cost to her or her family. Now, actress Nan Gurley steps into her shoes in the retelling of her life story “The Hiding Place” on screen. Nan shares the lessons she’s learned from Corrie’s life of obedience and devotion to God and the hope that she hopes to share with those who watch the film. ---Learn more about "The Hiding Place":Website: https://thehidingplacefilm.com/---Learn more about Word Made Digital:Website: https://www.wordmadedigital.com/Connect with us on Instagram: https://tinyurl.com/fsycm98mJoin our Facebook Group "Digital Church": https://tinyurl.com/hfwuecm9---Thank you to our sponsors:Compassion Canada: https://www.compassion.ca/​​​ Canadian Bible Society: https://biblesociety.ca/---Music: "Good Morning" by Laxcity Musicbed Licensed

    What Would Jesus Tech? with Andrew Noble

    Welcome to the Word Made Digital Podcast! --- Should we embrace new technology? What does digital rest look like? Would Jesus read the Bible app, use Twitter or play video games? In 2023, with the digital age in full swing and technology changing faster than the weather, these are real (and important questions to consider). How is tech affecting us internally? Should churches engage with social media and tech trends, or is it a foothold for something destructive? This week we're asking a Canadian expert on the intersection of faith and technology, Andrew Noble. Andrew is a husband, father, and graduate of Heritage College & Seminary (MDiv). He has written for The Gospel Coalition Canada, has served as the Labs Director for FaithTech, and currently co-hosts a podcast called What Would Jesus Tech. Andrew is also currently in pastoral ministry at Grandview Church (Kitchener, Ontario). --- Learn more about Andrew Noble: Twitter: https://twitter.com/nobullnoble Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nobullnoble/ WWJT Podcast: https://www.whatwouldjesustech.com/all-episodes --- Learn more about Word Made Digital: Website: https://www.wordmadedigital.com/ Connect with us on Instagram: https://tinyurl.com/fsycm98m Join our Facebook Group "Digital Church": https://tinyurl.com/hfwuecm9 --- Thank you to our sponsors: Compassion Canada: https://www.compassion.ca/​​​ Canadian Bible Society: https://biblesociety.ca/ --- Music: "Good Morning" by Laxcity Musicbed Licensed

    Dating in the Digital Age with Meisha Watson

    Welcome to the Word Made Digital Podcast! --- The Church/Christians haven't historically been the best at talking about or empowering singleness. Meisha Watson wants to change that. Her podcast "My Single Story" is airing out all the misconceptions and assumptions to help encourage and support Christian singles from ALL walks of life to find hope. Meisha has been a guest on the podcast before, but this time...we're going DEEP because we're in the same boat! Single, living in the digital age, Christian. Not a bad place to be, but when it comes to dating the odds are most definitely not in our favour. So -- get all your cringe out of the way and then LEAN IN. This is a good one!--- Learn more about Meisha Watson: Instagram: @iammeishaMy Single Story: @mysinglestorypodcastWebsite: www.heymeisha.com--- Learn more about Word Made Digital: Website: https://www.wordmadedigital.com/ Connect with us on Instagram: https://tinyurl.com/fsycm98m Join our Facebook Group "Digital Church": https://tinyurl.com/hfwuecm9 --- Thank you to our sponsors: Compassion Canada: https://www.compassion.ca/​​​ Canadian Bible Society: https://biblesociety.ca/ --- Music: "Good Morning" by Laxcity Musicbed Licensed

    An Entrepreneur's DREAM! with James Adams (formerly Visual Media Church, now ProContent)

    Welcome to the Word Made Digital Podcast! --- This was SUCH a fun episode. Connecting with a great friend, James Adams, to celebrate a massive milestone in his entrepreneurial journey. Many of us start a business dreaming of what it could be, hoping to make wise decisions along the way, helping it grow. Few entrepreneurs achieve it and then sell their business to a DREAM client. James Adams founded Visual Media Church in 2016, using his love for film and nature to create stunning visual backdrops for lyrics, bumper videos or whatever Church's needed. Now, James has announced that VMC is now ProContent and has officially been acquired by RenewedVision, creator of one of the most significant service prep and worship presentation software in the world, ProPresenter! James is sharing his journey, tips and reflections on the past and what he is looking forward to most in the future. --- Learn more about James Adams: Instagram: @jalexanderadamsProContent Instagram: @procontent Website: https://procontent.renewedvision.com/--- Learn more about Word Made Digital: Website: https://www.wordmadedigital.com/ Connect with us on Instagram: https://tinyurl.com/fsycm98m Join our Facebook Group "Digital Church": https://tinyurl.com/hfwuecm9 --- Thank you to our sponsors: Compassion Canada: https://www.compassion.ca/​​​ Canadian Bible Society: https://biblesociety.ca/ --- Music: "Good Morning" by Laxcity Musicbed Licensed

    Help! Is what I'm reading really true?!? with Bonnie Kristian (author and journalist)

    Welcome to the Word Made Digital Podcast! --- Is it just me, or are we all a LOT more skeptical about the news we are reading? The reality is, everything we read has a skew or influence.

    The Human Life of Jesus Christ with author Jared Brock

    Welcome to the Word Made Digital Podcast! --- Jesus asked His disciples, "Who do you say I am?" It's a question that still needs an answer today. Author Jared Brock explores this question in his new book "A God Named Josh", and the answer to that question may challenge everything you once thought about who Jesus was during his time on earth, starting with his very name. This is a charged, provocative book that Jared has researched, studied and pushed the boundaries of his own comfort to learn all that he can about Jesus, the most revolutionary man who ever lived. --- Learn more about Jared's book "A God Named Josh" https://www.amazon.ca/God-Named-Josh-Uncovering-Christ/dp/0764239627 --- Learn more about Word Made Digital: Website: https://www.wordmadedigital.com/ Connect with us on Instagram: https://tinyurl.com/fsycm98m Join our Facebook Group "Digital Church": https://tinyurl.com/hfwuecm9 --- Thank you to our sponsors: Compassion Canada: https://www.compassion.ca/​​​ Canadian Bible Society: https://biblesociety.ca/ --- Music: "Good Morning" by Laxcity Musicbed Licensed
