How can we think well about who God is?  This Week At Windsor we had the opportunity to speak with Dr Jeffrey Aernie, Professor at Alphacrucis University College and New Testament Scholar. As a fellow American, Jeff and Jonathan go back twenty years attending the same University, then seminary together. Jeff is a lover of language which drew him to study the New Testament in the original Greek.

Jeff, Jonathan and Ardin dive into a world of higher education and how it differs in Australia compared to the Untied States. Along the way they also explore how the Bible is translated from its original text to English. They will talk about understanding a living, breathing text written in a period time far removed from our own.

Come learn about cabbage as a love language.  Stay to find out which Bible verse you've probably been misapplying all these years.  This whole episode is a must listen!

This Week At Windsor, we have a very special guest return once again: author, pastor, preacher, and retired minister Lee Eclov joins us all the way from the United States to discuss his reflections on life and ministry "behind the pulpit."  Lee was lead pastor at Village Church of Lincolnshire where he pastored many seminarians, including Jonathan.

In this part two of a two-part episode, Lee dives into his own journey from a young boy taking the step to trust in God, his personal growth from "resisting God" to becoming free in Gods love, then following the call into ministry. We trust that you will be strengthened by Lee's honesty and his perspective of what it means to "get rich slowly."
