Undesigned coincidences for the win! I never tire of hearing about these.
This man is brilliant. His wife Lydia has also done some incredible work! She too would be worth an interview.
It is with his help that Tim's sister-in-law Viki McGrew wrote a new Apologetics curruculum targeted toward high-school/young university students.
Thanks for this!
Thanks Brian! I was hoping you would get an interview in with Tim. I am actually looking forward to work!
Wow! Excellent. Thanks for this interview, Brian. Tim's important work deserves highlighting. And this interview is packed full of helpful stuff (and teasers for more!)....
