In this special Christmas episode, Andy, Ben, and Wes dive into an important topic that often sparks curiosity and sometimes controversy: Mary.

In this week’s AC Podcast, Steve Kim sits down with our newest AC Adjunct speakers, Jean-Sébastien Morin and Samuel Plante to explore faith, culture, and ministry in Quebec. They share their personal journeys, unpack the province’s unique secular landscape, and reflect on how history — from the Quiet Revolution to today’s political climate and Bill C-9 — shapes the challenges Christians face. Quebec needs ministry that speaks its own language and stories. If we want to reach Quebec, we must first understand it.
In this episode, Andy and Steve travel to the shores of Loch Ness and dive into the legend of the famous monster. Using Nessie as a starting point, they explore the place of myth and mystery in our lives. Rather than pitting them against truth as enemies, they argue that the three can actually help us understand our world better. They contrast this with a thin, flat view of truth that reduces everything to what can be weighed, measured, and graphed. Join Andy and Steve as they ponder what Nessie can teach us about truth.

When we try to decide what to do, we often raise questions of right and wrong. Rightly so. But, depending on how we raise the question, it may not be enough. What is the difference between beneficial and permissible? How do virtue, wisdom, humility, and duty fit together? What is “freedom”? Join Troy, Ben, and Steve as they work through this puzzle.
