Church Directory Update

Rethinking Apologetics Interview with Rev. Myron Penner
Myron was recently interviewed by Ruah Space for an episode called Rethinking Apologetics. In the episode, Phil is joined by Myron Bradley Penner, the author of “The End of Apologetics.” Apologetics is the defense of the faith, but in its modern formulation it may not be the most helpful form of sharing the Good News. Myron shares with us an encouraging alternative to sharing our faith where we don’t need to be a genius with all the answers, but people who have experienced and live in the truth, are connecting our story to the story of God, can listen well, and can testify to what God has done in our lives. If you would like to access the full interview, please click HERE.
