Wow Jeff
 Mar 18, 2021
A no nonsense look at the most significant events in Church/Christian history. Not the cute personal periphery stories, but events that shaped the West & the world. The each podcast could even be a bit more detailed & longer. Good job Mike.

Description

Our culture seems more interested in the last two minutes than the last two thousand years. This is unfortunate. It’s also avoidable. Join Mike Woodruff each month as he speaks with authors and thought leaders to understand the ideas shaping our world. Beneath the Headlines is hosted by Lakelight Institute. Mike Woodruff is the senior pastor at Christ Church with campuses in the north suburbs of Chicago. Learn more at https://www.christchurchil.org
