Social media was made to bring us together. But few things have driven us further apart. Daniel Darling, in his book "A Way with Words: Using Our Online Conversation for Good," describes how we need an approach that applies biblical wisdom to our engagement with social media, an approach that neither retreats from modern technology nor ignores the harmful ways in which Christians often engage publicly.

When you experience health issues, of course you deal with the physical symptoms. But what about how your suffering health impacts your personal relationships? Dr. Jill Carnahan shares her own story and answers listener health questions about food intolerances, mold toxicity, chronic infections, and more.

Do you ever struggle with how to engage with an unbeliever in a conversation of faith? Fear that we might not say the right thing or we may not come off the right way is something many grapple with. Susie chats with Abdu Murray once again and they address things such as his transition to Christianity, how to bring up Jesus in conversations with Muslims and how we can navigate conversations of faith in the hostile world we find ourselves in. Abdu co-authored the book "Seeing Jesus from the East" with the late Ravi Zacharias.

Author and speaker Lisa Whittle continues her discussion about making Jesus your top priority and how to serve with humility from her book, "Jesus Over Everything: Uncomplicating the Daily Struggle to Put Jesus First." Listen to the full interview here.

As Christians, we know that Christ should be our main priority. But that is more challenging than we'd like to admit. Lisa Whittle shares what she's learned about truly putting God first in her life from her book, "Jesus Over Everything." Listen to the bonus podcast with Lisa here.

Perhaps you are familiar with the Lord's Prayer found in Matthew 6. Author Addison Bevere explores the important themes of who God is, who we are, and how forgiveness impacts our lives both now and eternally. Addison's book is, "Saints: Becoming More than Christians."

Jesus revolutionized the lives of those who followed Him. What would it look like if we encountered Jesus the way His followers did in the Bible? Dallas and Amanda Jenkins, in their devotional "The Chosen: 40 Days with Jesus," take a unique look into the Gospel story, provide suggestions for prayer, and questions that lead you further in your relationship with Christ. They also dive deep into Season 1 of The Chosen TV series (the first-ever multi-season show about Jesus and #1 highest crowd-funded project of all-time) with Susie and preview what to expect in Season 2 (set to release in early 2021).

Maybe you feel weary from the continual barrage of crisis after crisis. Do you worry when bringing up Jesus to others? David Bryant shares important insights into the state of the world and how we must share the hope we have. Read David's blog post on the topic here.

Many hear the call to be bold and share their faith. But how exactly does this look for the believer, especially in the complicated & divisive world we find ourselves in? Lee Strobel and Mark Mittelberg, in their article titled "The Missing Person Your Church Desperately Needs," outline why they believe it is so vital for those in the church to learn how to productively share their faith. They provide simple & practical ways that we as believers can share our faith, how to respond to our increasingly hostile society we find ourselves in, and the importance of "joining the team" to reach the world with who we are and what we're wired to do. Lee and Mark also share about the Lee Strobel Center for Evangelism and Applied Apologetics and how it is so relevant for this topic.
