Hour 1: Evangelism and Education
Join us this hour as we take a look at some of the stories making headlines. We will also get an update on how the Gospel is spreading throughout Iran and how we can pray for that nation. We round out the hour learning about a wonderful ministry made up of a network of teachers, both locally and nationally, who support each other in faith, prayer, and spiritual conversations.
Hour 2: Freedom and Sacrifice
As we approach the election season we tackle WHY its important for Christians to make their vote count and share an important tool to help you with your decision making. We then introduce you to a new film coming this November that tells the story of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, who paid the ultimate price for speaking the truth. Why is his story so relevant today? Don’t miss a powerful conversation on the importance of freedom of thought, of conscience, and of speech.
