Ambassador Training 1: Relativism, Pluralism & Scientism

We're called to be Ambassador's for Christ (2 Cor 5:20) but how can we do that well if we don't know how to respond to the most common objections that the world has? In Round #1 of Ambassador Training, we'll look at each of the following objections to Christianity: Relativism - "There is no such thing as absolute truth. You have yours and I have mine." Pluralism - "All paths lead to God, there is more than one correct way." Scientism - "Only science yields truth; religion is merely a matter of opinion."

Ep 144: Mental Health Part 2 w/Mike Flynn

Video
Men’s Alliance

Mike Flynn is back on the podcast (Ep 119 Relationship Advice) Listen in as Mike talks about the need to be on a team and the importance of talking about mental health. Close friends get to know the real you over time and can identify when you are not being your true self. While Jesus had a tribe, he still took time alone for himself. This may require identifying when we are busy and saying no to things in order to free up our time.
