Many people hesitate to listen to the gospel because they think Christianity is all about rules and religion. In an effort to clearly communicate that the gospel is all about God’s love, Pastor Jeremy Vance wrote a book entitled “John, Jesus and Me.” We talk to him about how this book provides a fresh look on the gospel of John as a love letter from God to us, and how we can personally experience God’s love, a love that cannot be earned and cannot be lost.

Are you going through a “desert experience?” In this episode, Dr. Dave Anderson shares biblical principles to help in seasons when you do not feel God’s presence. Drawing from the experiences of people in the Bible, he provides encouraging insights and also warns of dangers that can mislead us as we try to understand feelings in relation to faith.

The Bible tells us to always be joyful but for people who are going through tough times, it can be hard to feel joyful. In this encore episode, we are blessed to have our regular host, Carmen Pate, share about her ongoing battle with leukemia and how she continues to experience joy in the midst of trials.
