Leave a Comment / Podcast / By

There’s nothing quite like an international sports gathering to capture the world’s attention. Just a week into the Paris 2024 Olympics and the world is already buzzing about several controversies, most notably the Opening Ceremony. While it was said to be a celebration of diversity and inclusivity, many feel it made a mockery of the Christian faith with its provocative depiction of Da Vinci’s Last Supper. This has prompted many to question the Olympic committee’s agenda, and sadly, has highlighted a divide among believers regarding whether or not we should be offended or even surprised by paganistic practices.

Is This Thing On?: Prayer and the Practice of Communing with God

Leave a Comment / Podcast / By

Our Father, who art in Heaven, are these prayers worth my time? This week on the AC Podcast, we delve into the practice and privilege of communing with God through prayer. This episode is inspired by a listener’s email asking: “Do our prayers affect things? Should we pray for specific outcomes? Does praying for someone’s healing make a difference? If prayer influences events, what are the qualifiers? If God answers ‘small’ prayers, shouldn’t He also answer the ‘big’ ones?”

This week on our podcast, join Troy, Steve, and special guest Max Chadwick, AC’s talented filmmaker, as they delve into the art of navigating opportunity, voice, and platform with the gentleness and timing exemplified by Jesus.
