How can we stand and advance the truth of Christ inside conversations that are hard or controversial or counter-cultural? In this episode I’ll walk you through my method I call “DABAC” that will equip you for those convos. I also give a couple reminders at the end.

Let’s talk about some of the ways the church is equipping you for the work of ministry this fall. You’ll be encouraged by all the different highways and byways for us to get on in order to make disciples that delight in the supremacy of Christ.

In this episode I’ll answer (a) how and why Kings now? (b) what are the big ideas of Kings? (c) why such a fast clip? (d) what commentary might I buy to follow along? (e) what counsel do you have to prepare for each week? (f) how can I/we pray for this series?
