Show notes

In this episode, Ben is joined by the ladies and special guest Cyrena Bell Denniston - worship leader and vocalist for the metal band 'Seed' in Minneapolis, MN.

Episode 242: Words CAN Change The World! Jun 02, 2020

Show notes

In this episode, Ben, David, Chad, and a mysteriously tardy Luke come together for a conversation on the power of speech, and how it can indeed change the world.
In light of the worldwide outrage surrounding the death of George Floyd, including the millions stating their opinions online, one can feel that his/her voice has no effect in the grand scheme of things. The guys discuss, with the help of impeccable Jordan Peterson logic, that whoever you are, you need to be speaking, because your voice IS heard, and needs to be heard.

Show notes

In this episode, Ben is joined by Courtney, Jodi, and Ania again - this time to discuss the importance of working to restore broken relationships in our lives.
They talk about how we so often find ourselves stuck in unforgiveness, either as the victim or the perpetrator, and how God desires for us to be free through reconciliation - the very thing he offers us through the cross.
