FLN Inside Out: Know What to Look For - 09/30/2026
#InsideOut
There are a lot of church and ministry voices we can listen to. Some will help us grow and serve. Others are not healthy. How do we know what to look for? We need discernment to know if churches we attend or teachers we listen to online are sound--or if they injure people even while preaching the message of Jesus Christ.
Mark Pritchard joins me for this Inside Out conversation about discernment. He’s senior pastor at Church of the Gates in Missoula, Montana. Along the way he outlines key attributes we should look for in a healthy church or ministry and talks through ways to respond to church abuse and church hurt.

FLN Inside Out: Hope in Suffering - 09/16/2026
#InsideOut
Most of us resonate with the Old Testament book of Job.
“The book of Job specifically zeros in on suffering, and we are going to have suffering in this world,” says author, pastor, and council member for The Gospel Coalition Andrew M. Davis. “Jesus said, ‘In this world you will have trouble.’ And we do. And so, God is able to walk with us in our suffering and in our grief and give us wisdom through this book and through other books of the Bible.”
Davis uses words from Job’s response to his suffering as the title for his new book Yet Will Hope in Him. That hope is found in God’s inspired Word--and supported by our familiarity with it.
“The more we read Scripture and see the promises of God and immerse ourselves in them,” Davis says, “the stronger our hope will be.”
God did not answer all of Job’s questions in the Old Testament book’s 42 chapters. But God did answer them by the end of the entire Bible, Davis points out in our conversation, through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

FLN Inside Out: How We Read the Bible - 09/02/2026
#InsideOut
Tim Mulgrew thinks many Christians are missing the transformation God promises because we ask too little of the Bible He’s given us.
Mulgrew’s the author of the new book The Book of Us: Discovering Ourselves in the Story of the Bible.
“I think we do ask too little of our Bibles,” Mulgrew says. “Most Christians treat Bible reading as a daily task, something that’s required of their Christianity, but they don’t see it for its true purpose: which is really to reconcile us to God and live the life He has for us.”
One question he suggests we ask as we read God’s Word is this: “Of all the events in life that clearly reflect God, why did God think it was important to capture these particular events, and why is it important that He has me reading them this day?”
