  • Trauma

    Thank you for the sermon on trauma by Ed. It was so true and understanding. I’ve gone through a lot of trauma in my life. As a child, I was sexually abused by my father, which I know has filled me with fear of people. But the worst trauma to happen to my family and me was the death of my grandsons.

  • My comfort podcast!

    Thank you for always pointing me to gospel truth and encouraging me in Jesus! As I serve on the field in the Middle East and do not have access to good Christian community or a local church to fill me up spiritually, I cannot even explain how meaningful and helpful your podcast has been to me. It’s not only practically helpful, but it always centers me back on Jesus and the beauty of His nearness and promises. I need the reminder. Thank you!

  • Scripture is physiologically engaging

    Appreciate the teachings on how prayer and care for self and others has a way of regulating our bodies: blood pressure, physical and emotional pain, disordered eating/sleeping/cravings, etc. Another testament to the reality that the Holy Trinity meets ALL our needs. Thank you for sharing the Truth.
