In this special bonus episode we invite Pastor Ray Rhodes Jr. who is the author of the great new book, Susie: The Life and Legacy of Susannah Spurgeon, wife of Charles H. Spurgeon. Many of are already familiar with the Prince of Preachers himself, Charles Spurgeon, but what do we know about his wife? "Susannah Spurgeon was a remarkable woman in her own right. She rode nobody’s coattails and was as instrumental in the gospel ministry of the Spurgeon family as her husband, if less well-known. In this well-crafted and thoroughly researched biography, Ray Rhodes Jr. paints a portrait of Susie’s own life – her growth in faith, her joyful marriage, her strength in suffering, her devoted ministry, and her lasting legacy." Listen in as we chat about Susie Spurgeon, her life, legacy and what it all means for us today. I guarantee you'll learn something you didn't know before and you might even be surprised about a few things.

As we continue our look at the attributes of God, this week we chat about the goodness of God. God is good and He is good all the time - but really? Is God good when things are going bad? What is goodness anyway? We welcome back Pastor Phil Allen of the Daystar Christian Fellowship to address these topics and more.
