Hal Seed - author of "The God Questions"

Guest: Hal Seed
Date: 11/22/08
Topic: The God Questions

In his book, The God Questions, pastor Hal Seed explores the "tough questions" about God, salvation, suffering, and non-Christian religions. It's an easy-to-follow basic introduction to apologetics. It's also available in a smaller, pocket-sized version that's great to give to friends who are simply curious about the Christian faith.

Disciple Nations Alliance - The Monday Church

Guests: Darrow Miller, Scott Allen, and Bob Evans
Date: 11/29/08
Topic: The Monday Church

ACWI board member Nathan Miller filled in while I was out of town for Thanksgiving, 2008. He met with several folks from Disciple Nations Alliance: Darrow Miller, Scott Allen, and Bob Evans. They talked about what it means to be the Monday Church – the "church scattered." It's important for the church to gather together for corporate worship and fellowship on Sunday, but it's equally important to be the church the rest of the week.

Heather Nations - author of "Just Enough Grace"

Guest: Heather Nations
Date: 10/4/08
Topic: Just Enought Grace

Just Enough Grace is Heather Nations’ journey through parenting, homeschooling, cancer, the subsequent cross-country move (in the midst of cancer treatments), and the on-going changes and challenges of everyday life with four kids. Yet through it all, she sees God’s hand and hears His still small voice. One of the biggest lessons she’s learned is that God gives us just enough grace—just enough for the moment, for the specific situation that we’re in right now.
