Have you ever made significant life decisions based on a single word from the Lord? Barron talks with Dan and Hailey MacLeod about how a chance meeting at a Bible School dormitory led to founding a church in Halifax, Canada and then on to the missions field. 

The journey of the MacLeod family is a powerful reminder that God is in control and what he needs from us is to say "Yes" to the Kingdom.

Why is it important to prioritize physical self-care? Barron and Dave talk about how taking care of our physical health is honoring The Creator who gave us our bodies. To do otherwise is to squander the resources inwhich we were given.

Taking care of yourself physically is like maintaining a high-performance vehicle; you wouldn't drive a Ferrari on empty, so why treat your body any differently? Plus, being a good steward of our physical body ensures we're always ready to tackle life's twists and turns with energy and resilience.

How do I gain eternal life? Jesus's answer to this question in Luke 10 is the origin of the story of The Good Samaritan. Nowadays the term Good Samaritan is commonly used to describe someone who helps those in need. 

Barron and David look at this well known parable from a different angle. They discuss the question "who is my neighbor?" and dig into why neighbors matter.
