Hour 1: So The Next Generation Will Know
Gen Zers are making a mass exodus from the church! Can we do anything to stop this trend? Dr Sean McDowell and J. Warner Wallace say “yes”---and provide research-based, proven strategies and practical, experientially grounded tactics to help parents, youth leaders, and Christian teachers assist young people in owning their faith and effectively engaging the world around them.
Hour 2: Have You Ever Wondered?
Beauty. Justice. Identity. Love. Stories. Nature. Hope. These things intrigue us, move us and prompt us to ask big questions. Could there be clues in our deepest desires that point to life’s meaning? Andy Bannister invites you on an immersive tour through the issues that matter. If you have looked at a landscape and contemplated why we are drawn to beauty; or wondered why we are so insatiably curious about our universe, or even for those who have simply looked up at a million stars in the vast night’s sky and just wondered. Andy has drawn some keen observations from people with backgrounds in science, law, linguistics, theology, bioethics, history, and more, to reflect on how their questions have, in some cases, unexpectedly led them to a compelling Christian spirituality and a profound sense of meaning and purpose in life.
