Hour 1: Home and Abroad
Join us for an informative hour designed to help you understand global events while ‘’looking well to the ways of your household.” Learn what security issues the nation is facing while also understanding what it takes to be a homeschooling parent. Join us to learn what it means to think critically and to act biblically!
Hour 2: Reluctant Witness
New research finds that Christians are less involved in spiritual conversations today than we were twenty-five years ago. As society has changed, it seems we have become more uncomfortable talking with people about our faith. We are reluctant conversationalists. The reality is that many of our churches and communities are shrinking instead of growing. What can we do about this? Unpacking what God's Word says about spiritual conversations and digging into the habits of eager conversationalists, our guest will describe what we can learn from Christians who are still talking about their faith.
