  • How to navigate critical race issues

    This episode was so helpful. I needed the perspective …needed

    It several months ago to be frank. It would have defused a pretty intense conversation. I’m learning a lot from your podcast. Keep it up Tim! God bless you for your gracious, insightful insights about how to navigate culture wars in today’s melee.

  • Timely and refreshing

    So thankful for the great work that is being done through this podcast. Each episode is relevant, thoughtful and I always find a new perspective on a topic I have been needing a different voice to speak in to. I hope this podcast is here to stay. We need more inspiring conversations like these to lead us into a better way to talk and think and act in an increasingly complex world. Thank you for setting the standard incredibly high.

  • Timely

    There are disagreements in our Christian family and extended family about politics and beliefs so I value the hard work that you guys have put into this and the service that you are providing to so many. My plan is to go through all of the podcasts and look at your other sources as well. Thanks again. Arlene. (On CRU) 😊
