Adam is talking with Rob Rienow in this installment of Sound Truth Interviews. If his name sounds familiar you might remember him from a previous interview. Today they are talking about Robs book Visionary Church: How Your Church Can Strengthen Families. This is a huge topic right now. jump in and see what they came up with.
Lydia Brownback is our guest on this episode. we have talked to her before but this time we are talking about her new book, A Woman's Wisdom: How the Book of Proverbs Speaks to Everything. Advice books are no short-lived trend, even though much of the advice parading as “wisdom” proves shallow in the long run. What we need is biblical wisdom, and even more than that we need hearts set on the One who governs all our practicalities. The book of Proverbs unlocks the key to both, helping us to face very real challenges
Adam and Lydia go into this topic wisdom from a biblical point of view.
Our Friend Christopher Ash who has been on the show many times comes back with a great little book. Where was God When that happened? When a disaster happens; when personal tragedy strikes; when we are perplexed by world events, Christians begin to doubt that God is either truly good, or truly in control.Adam sat down with Christopher to talk about these questions and got some really good answers. this is an episode to listen to all the way through.
Adam got to talk to Margy Tripp. she has a great new book out called It's Not Too Late. I think if time allowed they could have gone on for hours on this great conversation. They talked about some of the common reasons for broken parent/child relationships and that there is hope for weary, bewildered parents.
