Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Extreme Love in Action: Emergency Relief and Faith with Lane Terzieff
Q: Talk a little bit about the discernment.
It's a delicate dance between trusting God, listening to others, and being wise.
Inner Excellence Meets Radical Love: Coaching the Heart with Jim Murphy
Q: How are you navigating that? What are you learning about it?
There's so much fear and anxiety and tension in the world today, and violence and so many tragedies going on, like you mentioned in Gaza.
Sparking Peace with pastor, educator, and author - Hannah Martin
Q: Can you talk a little bit about that fine line of how we do want to be direct, but we also want to be purposeful and do it in ways that heal rather than exacerbate the wounds?
We want to help caregivers feel comfortable about where kids are developmentally and allow them to choose how deep to go into conversations about difficult topics.
Secrets of the Killing State | author, Corinna Lain
Q: How do you respond to people who say the victims didn't get to choose how they were going to die?
I think it's important to understand that actions of brutal murderers cannot be the standard for our conduct, we can't stoop that low as a society.
Secrets of the Killing State | author, Corinna Lain
Q: I'd love to hear a little bit about what fuels your interest and passion for the death penalty.
I think it's grace, I think it's the Lord and the Holy Spirit that led me to the death penalty. I started with a legal history piece and became really interested in this 1972 case, Sferman v. Georgia.
