Talking with Friends (Friendship #4)

Season 11 · Episode 4

Thursday, March 13, 2025 • Duration 32:29

So far in this series we’ve talked about why we need friendships and the difference Jesus makes to them, but what does that look like in reality? Adam and Ashleigh each sit down with a friend to talk about how their friendship has brought them closer to God and taught them more about him, and share their reflections on what has helped their friendships to thrive. Why not share this episode with a friend and let them know how much you appreciate them?

Robert: Real Love (Different Stories #8)

Season 10 · Episode 8

Thursday, October 10, 2024 • Duration 34:06

This episode contains discussion of childhood sexual abuse, depression, and suicidal thoughts.

Sometimes God breaks into our lives in the most unlikely circumstances. Robert was sexually abused by a teacher at school, forced into becoming a Christian, and went on to marry a woman and lead a church – all while being same-sex attracted and not truly knowing Jesus. From there things fell apart, and Robert began living as an out gay man. Only later would he come to know the love of God for the first time, and give his life to Christ.
