Wonderful Apologetics

I love apologetics and believe all Christians should know what they believe, why they believe it, learn how to ask meaningful questions and defend the faith. Greg is a font of knowledge, but sometimes he can be a little long winded, so I just speed it up or skip ahead a bit. ;) But overall, it’s a great podcast!

Decision making podcast

Great podcast! I read the book by Garry Friesen years ago and was so encouraged and freed up in my decision making. It changed my life and gave me peace. But, I haven’t heard many pastors, speakers or churches espouse this same viewpoint. So, thank you for this podcast which, once again, encouraged me.
