DCC Leadership Podcast

How do you respond when you fail to live like Christ? How do you react when others stumble and fall who are around you? In this episode of "Spending Time with the Text," DCC faculty member Dr. David White offers four steps for restoring ourselves or someone else when we stumble and fall (not if!). Dr. White focuses on one of the many New Testament "one another" passages and offers practical suggestions for biblical restoration.

In this special Memorial Day episode of the DCC Leadership Podcast, Dr. Mark Hahlen, the Chair of DCC's Bible Department, takes a look at the events of July,1944 that changed the course of the war in the Pacific and directly impacted the life of DCC's founder and first President, Vernon Newland. As we celebrate the 70 years of influence Dallas Christian College has had, we believe that God orchestrated those events of 1944 that changed the lives of thousands (and possibly millions) of people who after 1950 would be touched by the work of DCC.
