Dave’s goal in life is to continually know Christ and make Him known. Check out Relate365.com

The life of a disciple of Jesus Christ can be complex at times.  The Bible tells us we should trust God in all matters.  It says we can approach the throne of God in confidence with our petitions.  And yet it also says to fear God.  Trust, confidence and fear:  Not always easy to reconcile all three of those, yet this is the life we are called to as believers, particularly in a world that increasingly hates God and we who are disciples of Jesus.

Dave Wager of Silver Birch Ranch and Nicolet Bible Institute joins Mike and Crash to discuss this complex set of values believers are called to embrace.
