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.
