Chats Under the Sun

Nao is a Japanese Student here at Southern. We met during our first week, and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed talking with her about life in Japan and what it's like to move here to America. We talked about a ton of stuff, mostly around what it’s like to be a Christian between two cultures. I absolutely loved this conversation.

Davey is a fellow SBTS student that I met the first Sunday I came to Louisville. We chatted about Masculinity, Christian Art, Stereotypes and a half dozen other caffeine-inspired rabbit holes. I loved this convo, Davey is a wicked smart dude and a ton of fun to talk to.

A few people reached out and asked how life is going down here at Southern, so I figured I'd make a little life update episode. I have some great people lined up to record with over the next couple of weeks. Stay tuned for that. 

I am incredibly grateful for the support and encouraging messages over the last few months of doing this podcast. It means a lot to me.

Love y'all!

This Southern Student is a friend with an almost endless stream of stories from his mission trips around the world, and has a ton of thoughtful insights to give on serving and spreading the Gospel. We swapped a lot of stories in this podcast, and it was a riot to record.

Cheers guys!

Fred jokingly sent me his description for the podcast and I laughed hard enough to include it here.

“In this episode, Fred and I sit down and chat about theological differences and different perspectives on hell. Things start to get real hot but don't worry the gates of hades did not prevail against us. We remain cool and have a lit conversation. If you are interested in what we talked about and want to descend deeper in the theological abyss, here are some links:

Jesse is a talented, thoughtful dude and has been one of my closest friends for nearly 2 decades. We chatted about his upcoming music projects, our thoughts on skills we want to acquire, and how to strive for goals while finding purpose in the present. Also, my boy is getting married this week. I'm incredibly grateful for the chats I have with this man.

Joel is the pastor of my church and has been for nearly 8 years. It means a lot to me that he was willing to sit down and chat about Vineland FRC, how he writes sermons, and what his journey into ministry looked like. I have a lot of respect for this man and he has a ton of wisdom to share. I have STICKERS! If you want some CUTS stickers hit me up on Insta @itsthevalk Thanks fam! Jake.

I seriously loved this chat and I learned a lot. Blaise is a speaker, writer, and musician with a masters in Catholic Theology from The University of Toronto and is the Eastern Outreach Director for CCBR. I met Blaise at a friend’s baptism and I thoroughly enjoyed talking with him. I’ve felt for a while that my understanding of Catholicism is fairly dismal, so I thought I’d reach out to Blaise to see if he wanted to talk through Catholicism and Protestantism. I’m really glad we did.
