Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Living Proof Of God's Glory with Beth Moore and Dr. Steve Bezner

Beth Moore explains a strategic retreat in which she will scale back the ministry's staff and large events, continue writing and teaching by invitation, and focus on sustaining the mission while easing into a new phase of leadership.
Living Proof Of God's Glory with Beth Moore and Dr. Steve Bezner
Q: What about the Anglican Church? What has drawn you to that tradition and what are the challenges?
Beth describes Anglicanism as a healing, ancient home that preserves core Christian faith while offering liturgical and communal rhythms, contrasting with a more charismatic or Baptist context; challenges include adjusting worship style and theological nuance, but she values continuity and reverence for scripture.
Living Proof Of God's Glory with Beth Moore and Dr. Steve Bezner
Q: How do y'all know each other, and what is the history between you?
Beth Moore and Steve Bezner share a long-standing professional friendship and collaboration in ministry, with roots in their mutual work in Houston and shared conversations about faith, preaching, and church life.
No Excuses with Velma Tim
Q: What concrete steps can churches take to engage with young adults in their communities?
Churches can host training for young adult leaders, partner to run campus outreaches, offer intergenerational mentorship, and create spaces for service and mission that allow young people to practice what they learn in leadership and discipleship.
No Excuses with Velma Tim
Q: Velma, how did you decide Arlington was the place to plant Acts 1-8 and begin ministry there after Great Plains?
After years of ministry abroad and training, a discernment process during a Texas conference confirmed the Dallas/Fort Worth area as the strategic place to reach young adults, with UTA as an anchor campus. The decision was guided by a sense of calling to engage campuses and partner with local churches to form a lasting movement.
