Relevant for today’s Christian

We don’t live in a bubble. Christianity is under attack. If you’re a believer or have had exposure to Christianity or are just not sure, this podcast is for you. I’ve taken away actionable ideas for living my faith. Plus, the teaching style of the pastors is always thought-provoking. You can really tell they have a depth of knowledge! I’ve recommended this podcast to friends and family who need this knowledge and encouragement. Thanks for the great content! Keep it up!

Believe it; It’s real

Dr John Parlow and Pastor Ben Workentine offer a solid, practical approach for a biblical worldview. Their presentations are relevant, historical, and can be easily shared with others. Those who may not know Jesus, or have followed Him all their lives, will thoroughly enjoy a style in this podcast that mirrors perhaps a conversation Paul may have had with Timothy. My family and I eagerly await new episodes.

Useless for seekers

This podcast is mainly about how current Christians should evangelize and offers little to the ones seeking a better understanding of Christianity. Take the recent podcast for instance. Christians are also supposed to pass judgment on the faith of people who confess they are already a Christian. That’s exactly what the Baptist and your basic run of the mill non-denoms do! Lutheran’s are better than this.
