Which One Do You Promote? - Episode #4 Summary of the episode: During this discussion, Brandon and Timothy review chapters 7 – 9 of the book, “Loving Your Muslim Neighbor.” This discussion asked the question, “Which one do you promote?” This question simply asks, do you promote Christ of the Bible or do we promote a so-called Christianity that fits our ideals? If you were to approach a bridge on a stormy night and you were able to stop because saw the bridge had collapsed, would you not thank God for saving your life? Would you not want to attempt to save others heading in your direction? Jesus himself made such a grandiose statement about himself that he is the way, the truth, and the life and absolutely no one can go to the Father except through Him. Jesus is the bridge to life. His life death and resurrection seal that statement. Tune into this discussion with Brandon and Timothy!

What Cost? - Episode #3 Summary of the episode: During this discussion, Brandon and Timothy review chapters 4 – 6 of the book, “Loving Your Muslim Neighbor.” Brandon starts off the discussion by asking the question, ‘what does it mean to be missional?’ Timothy expresses that we should be looking for opportunities to share the gospel.
