Episode description

In this episode, we take a break from the usual format to take one last look at Dad’s life and work in the 1970s. I’m calling this our “1970s lightning round.” The questions are quick and cover everything from Dad’s favorite movies and music in the 1970s to how he voted in presidential elections to what church controversies kept him on his toes to what lessons he learned and wants to pass on. I ask him questions like:

• What Bible verse did you repeat most often in the 1970s?
• What was the biggest difference between how you prayed and studied the Bible in 1971 and how you prayed and studied the Bible in 1980?
• What were your best and worst moments of the 1970s?
• What advice would you give to newlyweds, new dads, college students considering ministry, and churches that hire first-time or very young ministers?

This one is fun and moves fast and ends with some really good advice. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it.
