Interviews
Glenn Packiam: Rhythms of Resilience
Resilience is not that you never get dysregulated or you never get disoriented or you never get discouraged. Resilience means that even when you get disrupted or discouraged, there is an ability, by God’s grace, to recover.
David Uth: Loving People One at a Time
“The more central the gospel becomes in your ministry, the more you can fly above all of that division because the gospel transcends it.” -Pastor David Uth
Angulus Wilson: Evangelism Is the Heart of God

I think we have lived our Christian lives on the periphery of God's grace and goodness and favor for so long that we don't know how good the food is for ourselves.
Tanita Maddox: Showing Up for Gen Z
There are just so many things that are compelling about the triune God and the way that triune God has enacted redemption for us and continues to sanctify us after we follow him. We just have to pull the contextualization out for our young people so they can see it on their terms.
