Episode 49 on the podcast with guest Tim Challies will be available this Thursday! Tim Challies is a follower of Christ, a husband to Aileen, and a father to two girls, one of whom is married, the other newly engaged and one son, Nick, who is waiting in heaven. Tim worships and serves as an elder at Grace Fellowship Church in Toronto, Ontario, and has written many books and blogs daily at www.timchallies.com. Tim began the website in 2002 and has been writing daily since 2003. Through our conversation, we look back at his early beginnings and how that shaped his faith story, learn more about his family and how he found himself in the world of blogging so many years ago. We also dive into his latest books, From the Rising of the Sun (Challies and Kesee) and his first children’s book, The Greatest Race: The Inspiring True Story of Eric Liddell. For the project From the Rising of the Sun, Tim and his co-author, also Tim, spent countless hours preparing, planning and praying for the opportunity to embark on a journey of worship around the world! Truly a spectacular account of various churches, people and cultures that share a love for Jesus.“Whether in a Baptist Church or in an Anglican Church, whether in an isolated village or a bustling city, or whether in a context where the gospel is still taking root or in a context where it has existed for centuries, we were encouraged to see preachers open the Bible, read it out loud, and expose its meaning to the congregation. We were heartened to see and know that God‘s word is being faithfully preached throughout the world.” - Tim Challies.Not only did they co-author the book, but they have also included videos from each place they visited that provide a vivid learning experience that you won’t want to miss! Order the book today and embark on the journey with your family! Join me this Thursday for the full conversation on the podcast. #podcast #newpodcastcoming #fromtherisingofthesun #thegreatestrace #conversationsanadconncections #staytuned #faithstoriesA
