Conversations for Life CrossLife

Today we are honored to sit down and talk with psychologist, author, and speaker Dr. Diane Langberg. Dr. Langberg is the author of numerous books, including Suffering and the Heart of God, On The Threshold of Hope, and her newest book coming out in October called Redeeming Power: Understanding Authority and Abuse in the Church. How should a Christian understand and respond to trauma in their own life and in the lives of others? How can the church integrate recovery from trauma into its discipleship model? How can the church create a space for the traumatized to share their stories and find help?


 

Have you heard terms like white fragility, intersectionality, white privilege, or social justice? Join us today as we talk with Dr. Neil Shenvi about the theory behind these ideas. We will also talk about how parents can equip their children to discern truth from falsehood so that they are able to reconcile the claims of critical theory proponents with what the Bible says about God's concern for mercy and justice.

Join me today for a timely discussion with Dr. John Rush, assistant professor of economics at Covenant College, as we talk about the ongoing economic impact of the novel coronavirus pandemic. What does it look like to love our neighbor in the midst of this? What is contained in the stimulus package and what impact will it have on the economy? What long-term impact will this have? There are no clear answers, but the discussion will help all of us process our personal concerns and the big picture. 


 

Hear more from Becket Cook in part two of our conversation with author and speaker Becket Cook. In this episode we talk extensively about the influence of the media and Hollywood on our beliefs about what is right, wise, and good, and how easily this can cause Christians to doubt their own Scriptures. Join us today as we talk about the things that matter most to those that matter most to you.

Listen to Beckett share his story of how God opened his eyes and brought him out of a gay Hollywood lifestyle into saving faith, and hear him answer common questions many Christians have about same sex attraction. Find out more at www.crosslife.org.

In today's conversation, I sit down with author Jen Pollock Michel to talk about her book Keeping Place. How does our desire for Home point us upward toward God and outward toward our neighbor?
