An interview with a dear friend and brother in Christ who has answered the Lord's call in some great ways.

Hi everyone. Welcome back to the podcast. Today I am sharing a special second part to a trip I made to Cambodia two months ago. Last time I shared an interview with Vanny Chan. I hope that it offered a glimpse into his heart for all of you who were listening. Today I would like to share a Bible study that happened on the trip. Consider this an episode into my heart. As a preacher, there are times...

This is an iPhone interview with Vanny Chan from a trip to Cambodia in January 2018.

We’ve been considering some big picture elements of our faith. Where do we come from? What is God like? Why should we worship God? This week, for our final episode in this theme, we’re going to consider why a God who does not need us desires to have a special relationship with us. Another way to express this might be, why does an infinite God seek to be my Heavenly Father instead of just an all-po...

We’re pondering some basic yet essential elements of the good news about Jesus. Last week we considered an episode called About God. It gave us the answer to such questions as: (1) Is there a God? And (2) If so, what is this God like? This week, we’re going to consider worshiping God. Why do we do it? Why does a God who created everything seek those who will worship Him? Our memory verse is Revela...

Chorus Secure, is life from mortal mind, God holds the germ wi...

Hi there! We’re pondering some basic yet essential elements of the good news about Jesus. We’re consider the pig picture. How do Christians view God, and the world around us that God made? What is God like? Why should we worship God? This week, we’re going to look at the existence and nature of God. There are two basic questions that we want to try to answer: (1) Is there a God? And (2) If so, wha...

This month we’re going to consider some basic yet philosophical elements of the good news about Jesus. We’re going to consider God. How do Christians view God, and the world around us that God made? What is God like? Why should we worship God? These questions and more will be discussed all month long. This week’s podcast is about A Theistic Worldview. While that phrase may sound strange, we’ll dig...
