- Inspiring Two Generations!
Love this podcast. I listen to it with my girls (aged 14 & 12) whilst on the school run and it has been such a blessing for us to think through big issues from a Christian worldview. Keep up the amazing work!

This is one of the few podcasts I never miss an episode of. I absolutely love the vast variety of guests that we get to listen in on.

Love the show. Love how it’s obvious that the audience of believer and skeptic are each considered. I feel like I can recommend this podcast to anyone.
Would love an episode on ecclesiology. Specifically the evolution of how we do church. From the OT to the new to all the ways it’s done now. What elements of “the gathering” are non-negotiable and which aren’t? Church models, elders, deacons, ministries, tithing, etc
Apple Podcasts5mrsckleinUnited States5 months ago - Appreciate this podcast!
Thought provoking podcast which provides great insight on topics you may not hear being preached about at church.
Would like to hear your thoughts on Hell - The punishment for sin is death but eternal torment seems worse than death. I know he gives everyone a choice but I’m grappling with why God creates millions of wonderfully created people knowing their relatively short lives will result in such an awful punishment.
