Dave Olson is at the table with Oscar Yturriaga, a pastor in Des Moines Iowa with Christian Life church. Oscar journeyed a unique path into being a Christian, marked by intense hunger for God. Oscar talks about the believer doing the spiritual math and asking: does this cancer diagnosis compute? Their conversation emphasizes the value in contending for what ought to be and leaning into the promises of God - and, the powerful reality that God's heart is to be relational with us. They also dive into Oscar's calling to ministry, finding his wife after a bold headed move, and his miraculous healing from cancer.

Oscar and his wife Megan are the lead pastors at Christian Life in Des Moines, Iowa. Christian Life is a church for all people. Especially the imperfect ones. Christian Life is here to help you know God, find belonging, and become the person you’re called to be.

ABOUT this podcast:

All Christians worship in a particular stream of Christianity. But no single movement carries it all. Dave Olson, Heartland Church senior leader, firmly believes this. Fell into drugs, became homeless, then God saved and healed him. He wants to give away what he's learned. He sits down with all kinds of people, especially Christian leaders making an impact locally and globally. Here to challenge those who think the gifts of the Spirit are for today, by helping them root it in the Bible. And challenge the one who isn't so sure the gifts are for today but loves the Word and is cautiously open.
