ABUSE

The Speaking Out on Sex Abuse Podcast 

Hosted by: Jimmy Hinton; Somerset Church of Christ; Somerset, Penn.

Clara Hinton; Somerset Church of Christ; Somerset, Penn. 

As family members of an abuser, Jimmy and Clara (son and mother) have made a platform available to speak to those who are touched by sexual abuse. Their story has been public in the media and highlighted in the Christian Chronicle many times. As a result of their visibility, they get dozens of emails daily asking for help from victims. Unable to adequately answer each email individually, they have started this podcast in order to reach out and serve. Several guests have been part of this podcast like Jules Woodson (“the face of #ChurchToo”), Abbie Schaub from The Keepers, Shaun Dougherty (included in a Christian Chronicle column), Boz Tchivdjian (Billy Graham’s grandson and founder of GRACE), and Judge Aquilina from the Larry Nassar sentencing.

Finding the Way 

Hosted by: Chris Jones; Westgate Church of Christ; Dothan, Ala.

Many of us wrestle with the big questions about life, our purpose and the ultimate meaning of it all. Finding the Way is a podcast devoted to tackling the big questions of life and presenting the Gospel of Jesus Christ as the center of all things – all in an effort to help Christians better share their faith and their Savior with a lost world. We believe that the Gospel answers your deepest longings and provides a way forward in this world. In fact, we would say that Jesus is the Way.

The International Gospel Hour Podcast 

Hosted by: Jeff Archey; West Fayetteville Church of Christ

The International Gospel Hour went on the air in 1934 with the late V.E. Howard as the speaker. It has run weekly on radio somewhere in the world for 86 years and is the second longest running weekly religious broadcast in the history of radio. Our podcast is actually the radio program—a 27-minute weekly and five 13-minute daily broadcasts. By the use of our podcast partners such as iHeart and others, we are able to make available our broadcast anywhere where “over the air” is not available. We want every option possible so that we can carry forth the gospel through all the world as commanded by Christ in Mark 16:15-16 with the end result as in Col. 1:23, “…the hope of the gospel which you have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven…” To God be the glory! Tune in and turn scriptures with us! Thanks!
