Episode 181 | Winsome Conviction

Season 4, Episode 5

October 9, 2024 • Autumn Gardner, Dave Morlan, Richard Langer

“What is the greatest threat to the church of Jesus Christ today?” Authors Rick Langer and Tim Muehlhoff answer, “quarreling.” Their book, Winsome Conviction, helps Christians disagree well. In today's polarized context, Christians often have committed, biblical rationales for very different positions. How do we discern between core biblical convictions and secondary issues? How do we cultivate better understanding and compassion for those we disagree with? Rick joins Dave and Autumn to discuss the book and provide insight into examining, communicating, and discussing our convictions.

Episode 183 | VFL Culture: Christians and the Two-Party Political System

October 23, 2024 • Autumn Gardner, Hunter Beaumont, Clark Nunnelly

Description: It’s election season! Perhaps you’ve weighed the factors and decided how to vote. Maybe you predict staring at your ballot and praying for a cloud to go before you. Either way, the current political climate may have left you weary and confused, feeling the hope and the awkwardness of our Christian allegiance to a kingdom not of this world — or all of the above. Clark Nunnelly and Hunter Beaumont, two of the Pastors at Fellowship, join Autumn to discuss how to think and act like a Christian as we engage in American politics.
