Roundtable: Purposeful Hobbies\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

A new show to binge, a football score to check, and then some gaming (got to level up!). These pastimes are fun, but in an entertainment-saturated world, how can we balance our go-to media interests with hobbies that are more productive? Our guests open up about their struggles with consuming too much entertainment \u2014 and how they\u2019re learning to stretch their minds and skills in other directions.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Culture: Stephen McWhirter\u2019s Journey From Meth to Ministry<\/b><\/p>\n

Before Stephen McWhirter became known for the song \u201cCome Jesus Come,\u201d he spent a long season openly hating God. Growing up watching his dad, a pastor, abuse Stephen\u2019s mom, Stephen wanted nothing to do with Christians. He turned to drugs, and for over a decade they consumed his life. But that\u2019s where God met him. Hear Stephen tell how God redeemed his broken story and gave him a platform to show others the path to true freedom.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
