    Individuality VS Group Identity- What is the BEST WAY? - ep. 227 with my guest Hans Jakob Winsnes

    Individuality VS Group Identity- What is the BEST WAY? - ep. 227 with my guest Hans Jakob Winsnes

    There are a lot of people who need help with making it through life, and there are differing views on how to best take care of people who are in need. My guest on this episode of COMIN' HOME COMMENTARY is Hans Jakob Winses. He believes, in part, that people should be identified as "groups" but rather as individuals. As usual, I push back and challenge his views.

    Does a Biblical Worldview Fit for America? episode 226 with my guest Hans Jakob Winsnes

    Does a Biblical Worldview Fit for America? episode 226 with my guest Hans Jakob Winsnes

    The Christian (political) Right is growing... or is it? Regardless, those who have a biblical worldview are becoming more vocal with statements that American society would benefit if the lines between Church and State were more blurred than they traditionally have been. Hans Jakob Winsnes is my guest for this episode, and we get into it again as we discuss this issue along with other topics concerning the social and political state of the United States.

    Two Black American Men in Norway - Two Opposing Views / episode 224 with my guest Vincent Baugh

    Two Black American Men in Norway - Two Opposing Views / episode 224 with my guest Vincent Baugh

    Vincent Baugh is the Vice Chair of Republicans Abroad Norway.


    In this discussion, we talk, disagree, disagree, and laugh as we display dialogue across opposing views on political and social issues. You will see that we dispel the myth that thought among Black Americans is one-dimensional and that Black Americans are a social and political monolith.


    This is how we do it.

What A Great Podcast

Yes, I’ll admit I’m totally biased twards this podcast because of my friendship with John. And yet, what John brings here in his “Comin Home” Podcast is something unique & special...something that anybody can gain something and share pretty much with anybody else. There are several tones and colors throughout theses episodes that paint a detailed picture of what it’s like to live in Norway but coming from America. And the bigger picture, wider view gives us the listener insights into aspects of life we may at times overlook or even have not been aware of. These insights can be treasures if taken, jewels when shared. Its my hope &
prayer that this podcast grows & reaches many, touching many souls, bringing light where needed... continued Blessings my Brother..🙏🏽❤️✌🏽
