#15 - Welcome back to the show! Today, I am honored to have author, pastor, and speaker Paul David Tripp on the show to encourage young people with Biblical wisdom.
As I mention in this episode, this will unfortunately be one of my last episodes for a while due to my busy academic load right now, but I look forward to returning to this podcast when I find myself in a more free season!

#14 - Welcome back to the show! After a very long break, I wanted to share some encouragement for the year ahead, and provide a bit of a different perspective on the idea of a "New Year".

#13 - Welcome back to the show! Today, we are diving into a great (and very short) book by one of the world's greatest writers of all time, C.S. Lewis! Not only was he a great thinker on relevant world issues, but he was also an influential theologian who helped Christians frame spiritual and philosophical issues more clearly.
Lewis's The Abolition of Man is essentially a "defense of universal values", and it's a formidable argument against relativistic thinking. It goes very deep, so put on your thinking caps and buckle up for a fun ride!
Here is a link to this book on Amazon.com:
The Abolition of Man
Today we are discussing only chapter one, but come back next time for chapter 2 of The Abolition of Man!
