The Susquodcast

What is the purpose of friendship? How do we live out God’s design for friendship? Today on the Susquodcast you’ll hear author and pastor Barnabas Piper answer these questions and more as we continue through our series on the theology of friendship. This is the second of four messages given at our Blast winter camp for college and career age young adults, and this particular message was given on New Year’s Day of 2023.

On today's podcast, listen to hear the first of four chapel messages from our Blast Winter Camp. In this message, Barnabas Piper discusses the meaning of friendship, shares the bad news for our friendships from Genesis 3, and hints at the hope to come in the rest of Scripture.

Peter and Dave sit down with Susque's Board Chairman, Dr. Tim Bryant, for a wide-ranging conversation about his time at Camp Susque. Chief Tim has now been Chairman of the Board for a third of Susque's existence, and he has plenty of memories to prove it. Expect to hear about all the fun things he and his campers ate during his time teaching camp craft, what it's like to honeymoon at Camp Susque, and all the changes he's seen in his time on the board.

Reeves shares all about how a friendship with a fellow teacher led him to read and consider the gospels for the first time and, ultimately, to come to faith in Christ. He also recounts a fond memory of the kindness of the Susque community and ruminates a bit on how Susque has had a generational impact on his family.
