One Good Story Podcast

Tim and Justin sit down to discuss Tim's sermon on Galatians 5:1-15 (not yet preached at the time of recording).  Although this is actually the 10th installment of a 12 part series that was planned months ago, it felt like the timing of this one was particularly providential.  Given all of the noise surrounding their hometown of Springfield, Ohio currently, Tim and Justin seek to find the answer to what Paul says really matters at the end of the day.  

Tim and Justin wrap-up the "Stories we Tell Ourselves" series, discussing their favorite episodes, things they learned from their guests, and some of the common threads that wound their way through the entire series.

Tim and Justin sit down with Tim Gombis, a bible professor with over two decades of experience at the undergraduate and seminary level.  He is also the author of several books, including The Story of God Commentary on the book of Mark.  Dr. Gombis received his PhD in New Testament Studies from the University of St. Andrews in Scotland and currently lives in Louisville, Kentucky.

Tim and Justin chat with Alan Star about translations, cultural differences, and hearing bible studies in a brand new light.  Alan has worked extensively in Africa for Wycliffe Bible Translations.

Tim and Justin talk to Stephen Herreid about Cain and Abel and have a spirited discussion about the role of shame, both in the bible and our culture.  Stephen is a singer/songwriter who hails from Wisconsin.

Bri Dupree joins the podcast to talk about The Embrace Collective and her favorite bible story, Saul on the Road to Damascus.  Bri is an associate pastor at The Experience Christian Center in Orlando, Florida and the founder and director of the Embrace Collective.

Cooper Smith joins Tim and Justin to talk about the story of Job.  What does this seemingly out-of-place book have to teach us about God and suffering.  Cooper is a pastor at Heartland Evangelical Free Church in Annandale, Minnesota with a PhD in Old Testament Studies from Wheaton College.

Tim and Justin talk with Pastor Daniel Hisey about the story of Abraham (almost) sacrificing his son Isaac in Genesis 22.  Daniel has a Master of Divinity degree from Liberty University and is an associate pastor at The River Church in Bar Harbor, Maine.

Tim and Justin are joined by writer John MacLeod, the author of the Saga of the Sword Brigade series.  He shares a little of his own story, the inspiration for his novels, and how the bible has influenced life.
