Episode 139 | VFL Reads: Lemonade On The Porch, Part 1
September 20, 2023 • Autumn Gardner, Hunter Beaumont
Christianity feels conceptually and culturally distant from many modern people. They find it hard to understand and believe. This hasn’t always been the case in America but it is more and more so today. What’s caused this and what can we do to bridge the gap? Autumn and Hunter discuss an article published by Tim Keller shortly before his death that breaks fresh ground on these questions.

September 13, 2023 • Hunter Beaumont, Dave Morlan
Hunter and Dave discuss the impact of pastor Timothy Keller (1950-2023) on their own development as pastors.

Episode 137 | Renewal & Revival
September 6, 2023 • Autumn Gardner, Hunter Beaumont
Autumn and Hunter discuss “revival” or “renewal” and why it’s an important part of Christian life. The term “revival” is often confused with many other things, like “evangelism.” In this conversation, they attempt to define what revival actually is and why it’s important for already-Christians. Topics covered include: the history of revival in America (First and Second Great Awakenings), Jonathan Edwards vs. Charles Finney, John Wesley, Billy Graham, and last year’s Asbury College Revival.
