Customer Reviews
Very thoughtful
I’ve listened to two episodes so far. I love how thoughtful the conversation is on controversial issues. Really focuses on understanding scripture and living life in light of that.
Thought provoking and informative
As a Christian living in this secular everything goes world, this podcast helps one decipher sound principles over misleading worldly messaging.
Thought provoking ways to share Christ
Being brought up where everything secular was wrong, Melanie and her guests help me find the positive in this world. Her and her guests open up new ways for me to use pop culture as a tool for sharing Christ. As of late the reading of CRI articles has been very good as well. I drive a lot for work and don’t always have time to read them. I find myself sharing many of the podcasts with friends. Keep up the good work and I am proud to stand side by side with CRI.
