LIFE MATTERS

A conversation with Dr Steve Dunn about thoughtful, practical, and intentional living as a follower of Jesus Christ--focusing on questions that younger generations have about God, the Bible, the church and spirituality. And sometimes, since life gets a little too serious, we just talk about more trivial matters that still warm the soul and bring everyday joy.
