How old is the earth? What about evolution and the Bible? What's the big deal? In this episode, Dave Betts is joined by Dr Melia, a geologist with a PhD in Geomorphology, to talk about this big - and sometimes controversial - topic.

The Gospel, or "Good News" of Jesus is central to the Christian faith. Yet, so often, we as believers assume it's a basic truth that we wrestle with before moving onto something more important. 

In this episode, Dave Betts is joined by Steve Janz as they discuss why the Gospel is crucial in all aspects of life, and a reality that we can dwell in for our entire lives.

Steve Janz pastored for many years across Canada and is now the Executive Director of Millar College of the Bible's Sunnybrae campus.

In the final episode of our 'Church Mythbusters' series, host Dave Betts discusses the myth that there is a singular "best way" to do church and the importance of different expressions of the body of Christ in the contemporary Church. 

This week host Dave Betts dives into the world of volunteering in the church, tackling a subtle but dangerous myth that if you volunteer more, you must therefore be more 'spiritual.'  

Why do some people feel like the Church is just after their money? It's a statement we've heard dozens of times over the year, and -- apart from a few unique cases -- couldn't be further from the truth. 

Where has this myth come from? And what does the Bible say? Host Dave Betts is joined by Dave Rogers to see if they can get to the bottom of this common myth. 

Dave Rogers is an elder at Ascot Life Church in the UK and serves on the Commission family of churches' leadership team.

Is a bigger church really better? Are small churches less valuable? There's a common myth in contemporary Christianity that says the best churches are the ones with the largest numbers of people.

Dave Rogers is one of the elders of Ascot Life Church in the UK and part of the leadership team of the Commission network of churches.

A common myth about the Bible is that it's full of contradictions. Is this true?

Dave Betts looks at the top five contradictions in the Bible according to the "Freedom From Religion Foundation" and argues that this apparent contradictions aren't really contradictions at all. 

Have you ever wrestled with grief? As believers, how do we respond to the loss of loved ones?
