Episode 5: Owen Strachan on The Benedict Option
In this installment of the podcast, Jared Wilson and Dr. Owen Strachan discuss Rod Dreher's new book The Benedict Option: A Strategy for Christians in a Post-Christian Nation.
Is the Benedict Option worthy of embrace by evangelicals?
What are some strengths and weaknesses of the book's strategy?
Is Benedict even an option for Christians who aren't upwardly mobile suburbanite two-parent families?
What would it look like if Satan took over a city?
How does God's Word impact our prayers?
God invites His children to talk with Him, yet our prayers often become repetitive and stale. How do we have a real conversation with God? How do we come to know Him so that we may pray for His will as our own?
In the Bible, God speaks to us as His children and gives us words for prayer—to praise Him, confess our sins, and request His help in our lives.
We’re giving away a free eBook copy of Praying the Bible, where Donald S. Whitney offers practical insight to help Christians talk to God with the words of Scripture.
