Have you ever wondered what to say to someone who used to attend church services with you. but has now stopped? Or, if you're a leader in a local congregation, what should you do if you've noticed someone is suddenly missing from worship?

Today, we interview our own Daniel Gaines while he's taking a break from a long day of digging at an archeological site in Israel. Daniel explains to the audience that he's actually working on a site that is believed to be where the tabernacle stood for several hundred years.

Today we discuss the topic of "being called by God'. Is this something the God still does to the faithful? Is everyone called for a specific purpose? Are certain individuals called to preach?

There are a lot of religions in the world but they can't all be true. If one is true, it means the other religions cannot be. So, how can we KNOW that Christianity is indeed TRUTH and not just another man made religion?

Today, we discuss this topic with our good friend, Bart Warren.

How is the Church, as a whole, handling evangelistic opportunities? Do we take full advantage and spread the Gospel or just sit back and wait for someone else to do it? Christianity is an active religion that requires Christians to tell others the good news, but the means with which we spread the gospel have changed over the years. On this epside of Soul Training, the guys discuss ways to get involved in evangelism, how to create evangelism programs in churches, and some ways for church leaders to understand the evangelistic health of their congregations.

Israel was once known to be a special people to the almighty God. God's word contains a lot of Jewish history. But, are they still His chosen people? What about the rest of us? On this episode of Soul Training we discuss the topic and try to answer the following questions:

- Why were they God's people?

- Who are God's people today?

- How can I become one of God's chosen people?

Has there been a philosophical question discussed over the centuries more than "what is the meaning of life"? Since it's been such a popular topic over the years, it felt appropriate to give our take. On today's episode Allen, Daniel, and Joe talk about the theme from the world's point of view and the Christians. It turns out that there is a stark difference!

This episode of Soul Training deals with the topic of criticism. How do we take it? Should we take it? What do we do once it's given to us? How should we give criticism?

The Bible says more about the subject than one might think, so we dive into God's word for some answers.

For this episode, we decided to record in front of a studio audience for the first time. We LOVED the energy a live audience brings! The last bit of the show this week is a Q&A segment featuring some of our audience members. If you're a long time listener, you may recognize a couple of voices.

Other show highlights: Allen tells how NOT to ask for criticism.
