The Art of Godliness, Episode 1: Conflict in the Church

The Art of Godliness

Today I’m beginning something new: a podcast. I’m co-hosting it with Paul Martin who is a close friend and a fellow elder at Grace Fellowship Church. Together we are taking a look at a variety of subjects of relevance to the Christian life. We are beginning in episode one with the tricky subject of conflict resolution, and especially conflict within the church.

Thanks to our sponsor Logos for making this episode possible. Please visit logos.com/challiespodcast to learn about Logos 7 Basic (and download it for free).

Show Notes

*If you’ve been following this site long enough you know I’ve done some podcasts in the past. I enjoyed doing these and deliberately designed them to be limited in duration. Will this one be equally limited? We aren’t quite sure yet.

    Dust on the Bible

    Hank Williams recorded an old song called “Dust on the Bible.” It’s a song of lament in which he has gone to a friend’s home and asked to see their Bible. When they bring it to him, he realizes it has obviously not been read for a very long time, for it is covered in…
