If that seems like a pretty bold statement, you are not alone. Andy, Steve, and Wes came together this week to offer their reactions to both O’Connor and Dawkins, and to hash out some of the implications of such an extreme statement.

Troy and Steve sat down with our friend, Dr. Raphael Samuel, to delve into Part One of a two-part series titled “The Miracle of Birth.

Many Christians, of course, have also joined this phenomenon. From the discipleship perspective, how should Christians approach being an influencer? What does it mean to be an influencer, anyway? And is an influencer distinct from a teacher? What implications does it have in terms of responsibility and accountability?
