“If you want to help somebody, if you want to inspire somebody, if you want to reach somebody and lift them up to God’s way of life...you have to give them the Word. You have to know the Word, and as you write [music], just keep that in mind, that God is your sufficiency. God is the One that’s helping you. He will not hide anything good from you when you’re writing a song because He wants people to be reached even more than you do.”

Enjoy this conversation with Christian musician Bob Stanley and Lauren Boner as Bob expands on his background and inspiration for writing godly music. Also in this episode, Bob gives several special performances, singing some of his classic songs, as well as a new song entitled “Abiding in the Truth of God’s Word.”

“It’s so important to approach people with an earnest desire to understand them, where they’re coming from, to be able to set our beliefs aside—maybe not cast them away—but set them aside for a moment and genuinely listen, to invest in people without expecting something back. We’re getting at the heart of the love of God.”

Join Adam Barlow and Hunter Mullins as they discuss practically what it means to reach people right where they are in order to help them with the Word of God. They also discuss records from the Bible where this concept is shown, specifically in the life of Jesus Christ. How can Christians like us be more understanding and be more loving toward people? Listen to this episode to find out.

“We have to realize that light does dispel darkness and that we do make a difference. Your life does make a difference. Sometimes it doesn’t seem that way, that you don’t get awards for living the Word. You go home after a hard day of work, and you’ve got to take care of your family, and it can sometimes seem a little bit thankless. And it’s like, ‘What is the difference? Is this really making a difference?’ Absolutely, yes, it is making a huge, spiritual difference in the whole climate.”

Rev. Bryan Mittler, Rev. Chandler Greene, and podcast interviewer Edgar Mendoza talk about many facets of the subject “overcoming evil with good.” This interview covers the importance of understanding God’s goodness and bringing it into life’s situations. We invite you to spend time with these men in this special roundtable episode as they share the Word and their perspectives on the subject.

“It’s really important to be able to distinguish between the things of God and the things of the Devil—when things come into your life, to be able to have that ability to say, ‘Is this from God, or is this not from God?’ Because it may look good; it may seem good. But it depends on what your definition of ‘good’ is in the context of that life circumstance.”

Have you ever wondered, “Why does so much bad happen in the world?” or even, “Why is it that a God Who is so good would allow evil to exist in our day and time?” God does not want us to be ignorant of these spiritual matters. In this episode, sit down with Rev. Chandler Greene and Edgar Mendoza to find out more about the goodness of God and what the true source of evil really is.

“God’s Word is relevant. And I think that people need to know that. And we need to show people that God’s Word isn’t just a dusty book sitting on a shelf. It’s quick, it’s alive, it’s energetic. It has power. And when believed, it can change your life for the best. You can see the impossible become possible and you can have light where areas might be dark. You can have answers where there may be questions. And those aren’t conversations that we should just have together. Those are conversations that should be shared. The Word should be shared with people. And a great way that you learn about God’s Word is by talking about it and by having conversations about it. So I think that’s what we’re going to be able to do.”
