 If you had a chance to be with us for our recent Coffee with Kurt and Kate on Facebook Live, you met Chef Andrew Sims, of Sims Catering Services in Tampa. Since food was the focus, it made sense to have a real chef join us! Andrew is not only a culinary expert, he's a follower of Jesus. A year ago his faith was tested big time. You see, he was battling COVID-19 at the very beginning of the pandemic. He shares his powerful story with us.

Be inspired by biblical teaching, warm conversation, engaging topics, and uplifting music—all rooted in the transformative power of God's Word.

Andrew Sims – A Chef With A Story

Gretchen Ronnevik writes this: “If you’re in the midst of launching a child into adulthood, preparing them to keep the faith as they grow up, you’ve probably already begun to train them in apologetics. It might not be formal apologetics, though that’s what comes to mind for me: debates, arguments, refuting other people’s beliefs point by point. That kind of apologetics can be helpful for people legitimately wrestling with faith and Scripture. For teenagers especially, it can be a wonderful tool—evidence that Christianity is not illogical, that there are answers to their questions. But as my own children become adults, I’m also realizing apologetics has its limits.” She’s on to something there! Gretchen joined us to explain.

Enjoying the Nest In Hope, Not Fear – Gretchen Ronnevik

According to the World Health Organization, of the estimated 80 million people in need a wheelchair, only 5–35% have access to one. In low-income countries, as few as 3% of people have access to the assistive products they need. That's why each year, dedicated Joni and Friends volunteers collect thousands of used manual wheelchairs and other mobility equipment. Donated wheelchairs are restored to like-new condition by inmates in prison-based restoration centers located across the United States. This restoration process offers inmates the opportunity to make a difference for others and experience redemptive purpose in their own lives. Each recipient receives a custom-fit wheelchair and hears the Gospel message. Recipients also receive a Bible in their language, get training in wheelchair use and upkeep, and have the opportunity to connect with a local Christ-honoring church. Last week, several local churches, in partnership with Joni and Friends, served as local donation centers for used wheel chairs, bringing the hope of the Gospel to those with mobility needs!
