To purchase the entire DVD set of the Summit Lecture Series, visit summit.org. In Christianity, we have what is known as “The Problem of Evil”. This is why many people say, “That’s why I can’t be a Christian. God can’t be good and great and still allow evil to exist in our world.” My question to them is: What is your alternative? No one is neutral on this subject. Eventually, each person lands on some worldview, or reconciliation of how this... Read more

From Nicholas Derenzo of Hemispheres Magazine: Trans-Atlantic voyages have been big news since Columbus sailed the ocean blue. But this summer, a new “traveler” has joined the trailblazing ranks of Lindbergh and Earhart: Inventors David Edwards and Rachel Field, of Harvard University, transmitted the world’s first “scent message” from Paris to New York City on a new device by Vapor Communications called the oPhone (o for olfactory).

Hello and welcome to Parent Like You Mean It, the podcast where we talk about parenting on purpose – with the intention of instilling character and values in our children that would make our grandparents proud. I’m Jefferson Drexler, and I’m the first to admit that I probably watched too much television as a child, but I wasn’t just one to stare mindlessly into the boob tube – I actually paid attention. I remember acing a high school History... Read more

Meeting People Head On with Ray Schmautz 16: Following God’s Game Plan Play Now | Play in Popup | Download
After retiring from the NFL’s Oakland Raiders, I wanted to go and get equipped so that God could use me in ministry.  Although, I didn’t really know what that meant, or where or how God could use a guy like me.  So, I went back to San Diego State to finish my undergrad studies and worked with Youth For Christ while there.  And, while God was using us to do some great things during that time, I realized that... Read more

Jesus in HD 101: The Demoniac of the Decapolis [ 59:57 ] Play Now | Play in Popup | Download
From Dewey Bertolini, Pastor of The Safe Haven in McMinnville, OR: Whenever I talk about Satan, demons, spiritual warfare, or anything remotely related, the numbers of distractions in the room increase exponentially. This is a pattern I have documented over 40 years of ministry. Regardless of time of day, day of week, season of year, or venue in which I teach, it’s as if the devil himself does not want anyone (including you) to hear what the Bible teaches about... Read more

From Carey Green, author, blogger, speaker, coach and pastor: How to begin your own family devotions: UNDERSTAND YOUR PURPOSE Family devotions are intended to facilitate heart-level spiritual growth. They are not just about getting more knowledge into your head (or the heads of your kids). So your goal in devotions should never be to teach your kids to be perfect little theologians, having all the answers to every questoion, or applying religious formulas for a happy day/life. Family devotions are aboutrelationship – between... Read more

Real Stuff My Dad Says 73: In Your Story, Which Scene Are You Responsible For? Play Now | Play in Popup | Download
My dad and I LOVE sports and movies. One flick that combines these two (to a degree) is Frequency with Jim Caviezel and Dennis Quaid. In the movie, Quaid plays Caviezel’s firefighter dad in 1969 Queens, New York. An accidental cross-time radio link connects father and son across 30 years.

From Pam Rohr, author of Blended but not Broken – Hope and Encouragement for Blended Families: They say that blood is thicker than water meaning that blood family ties are stronger than other ties.  Janet loved her stepson, James, as her own.  His birth mom had been in and out of his life, more out than in.  And when she did come around, she showed little attention to his interests.  She rarely attended a game, was not involved in his... Read more

To purchase the entire DVD set of the Summit Lecture Series, visit summit.org. Often, when we learn about the Christian Worldview and Apologetics, we are left wondering how to convey these things to our friends and neighbors. You could easily spend over two hours just examining one small question sometimes. The classic question that almost always comes up is this: Why is there evil, pain and suffering in the world if God is a loving and kind God? Well, going back... Read more
