Our Hope in Christ Alone (Part 2) with Rev. Tyler Cronkright
Welcome to Light in the D and part 2 of my conversation with Reverend Tyler Cronkright. In part 2, Tyler and I get real in a discussion about discerning truth and the sign of the times like “mandatory” things (let he who has ears hear) aren’t supposed to question or apply critical thinking; looking at all of it through the lens of Word of God and how we should not allow fear, of disease, of death, the government, or the media, etc to force us to lose sight of where true light and hope is…in Jesus Christ.
Tyler Cronkright is Associate Pastor beside Senior Pastor Jim Hill of Family of God - a Lutheran ministry committed to bringing the transformative power of the Gospel to the lives of those living in Southwest Detroit. Tyler also co-hosts a podcast named Jesus, Dietrich, and Me. LCMS Pastors Jim Hill and Tyler look at the different works of German theologian and pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer and weave them together with Jesus and current cultural affairs.

Our Hope in Christ Alone (Part 1) with Rev. Tyler Cronkright
To kick off the first episode of Light in the D in 2022, I have a conversation with my friend who is also a Pastor, Reverend Tyler Cronkright. Tyler and I had a long and edifying conversation, so I made this one a two-parter. In part one Tyler shares the Root of the Gospel, Why Jesus needed to become sin on our behalf I learned something I didn’t know), plus one characteristic of God that the Church sometimes misses, or dismisses.

The Holiness of God, Romans 13 and the Church’s Role in Politics with Pastor Joel Webbon
The Holiness of God, Romans 13 and the Church’s Role in Politics with Pastor Joel Webbon
I speak with Pastor Joel Webbon, President and Founder of Right Response Ministries and the Senior Pastor of Covenant Bible Church, located on the North Side of Austin, TX about the Holiness of God and the role of the church in today’s volatile cultural and political climate and more.
About Right Response Ministries: Millions of people in the world today live in the midst of extreme theological poverty. Many have not even heard the name of Jesus, and many of those who have heard still possess little knowledge of who Jesus truly is. Right Response Ministries is on a mission to change that. We aim to help people everywhere begin to embrace a right knowledge of God that will burst forth into a right response of obedience, worship, and heart-felt adoration. Theology is the fuel for doxology. The heart cannot love what the mind does not know.
