Well. It looks like it’s happened. On Sunday the U.S. and Iran have reached an agreement to end the war, with the Strait of Hormuz opened and Iran committing to never having a nuclear weapon. On a podcast recorded just before the agreement was reached, Kevin and Bud take a quick look at the religious and historical context of the pervasive conflicts that Iran has had for years with the U.S., Israel and even other Arab-related states in the region. Th e guys also discuss the still very real risks and implications of the deal, including the political ramifications here in our U.S. elections.

Join Bud (with Kevin on vacation) as he dives into the reality that ‘…Life is all about relationships and the decisions we make about those relationships…’ . In this podcast, Bud notes how our society has diluted the meaning of the word TRUST, and how that dilution has led to widespread inauthenticity in relationships across all areas of life – marriage, parenting, workplace, church, recreation, etc. He brings it all back to a critical passage in Paul’s letter to the church at Ephesus.

Join Kevin and Bud as they debate - well, sort of – one of the great theological questions: Do we receive salvation as a result of our free will choice? Or are some chosen by God to receive salvation, while others aren’t? This entertaining dialogue between the guys may surprise you!
