In this short bonus episode, I had the change to ask a question of who is now the leading Democrat running for governor of Wisconsin - Francesca Hong. She is a self-identified democrats socialist and very pro-choice. So, I told her I'm a pro-life conservative. In age of division and hyper-partisanship, is common ground even possible? That's our quick discussion. Thank you to the Rogue Bookshop in Beloit for hosting the event.

This week we continue our series on the Apostles Creed with a conversation with Creationist Eric Hovind from Creation Today. Eric was such a gracious guest who was not only willing to talk about why he believes in young earth creationism but took time off air to spend time in prayer with me.

This week we continue our series on the Apostles Creed. Of all the ways God could have revealed Himself to us, He chose to describe Himself as a father. What does is it mean to have God as a father? Join us as Pastor Logan Schwandt gives us his perspective.

This week on the podcast I geek out about Bible translations with Josh Barzon. Josh just recently published his latest book, The History of English Bible Translations: A Simple Guide to the Story and Impact of English Bible Translations from the 14th Century to the 21st Century. This book is fascinating! But the best part is that it is short, accessible and easy to understand. If you've ever wondered about why there are so many Bible translations and what separates from another - this episode is for you!

This week we continue our look at the Apostles Creed by exploring the statement, "I Believe." Dr. Phil Allen joins us to unpack this seemingly unimportant phrase. Yet, by the end of the episode, I think Dr. Phil will have you convinced there is a lot of meaning in these two words.
