Hour 1: God's Purpose and Design for Marriage: A Prepared Devotional Teaching with Pastor Ed Hedding

Every Tuesday a Pastor or ministry leader from our community leads us in a devotional from God's Word for our week.

Hour 2: Christian Perspective on the News: A Conversation with Dr. Mark Caleb Smith

How do we view American politics and news items through a biblical lens? Once a month Dr. Mark Caleb Smith will be joining Ken and Deb to talk about some items in the news and how we can approach it from a biblical perspective. As this first visit is the day after President’s Day, we’ll talk about some presidential history and faith in the White House, and fast forward to talking about what’s happening in the skies lately and the importance and what we should be concerned about when thinking of these unidentified drones and Chinese spy balloons.
