A podcast where life and faith intersect.
In the Fall of 2022, McLane Church presented the series 6 Steps to Better Parenting and we wanted to follow up our weekend teaching with a couple of conversations from other parents here at our church. In this episode, we're talking to Chris and Beth Norris about their journey as a young parents, young professionals in the community, and being active in the life of the church. With a kindergartener and now a new born, Chris and Beth share with us what life is like in the Norris home, and how they make it work. Here's our conversation with Chris and Beth Norris.
As a followup to our 6 Steps to Better Parenting message series, (find the series here on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@mclanechurch/featured) we are interviewing some parents from our church, who share their experience and perspective on parenting. Here in episode 1, I'm going to talk to Steve and Jen Conway about their adventures in parenting, the joys and challenges they face, and we will even touch on adoption. The Conways are in the pre-school and elementary school season and we will hear what life is like in their home. Here's Parenting with the Conways.

Brian Kelly: Asking the Right Questions When Reading the Bible, especially the Old Testament 1. What's the author's bigger narrative — what is the author trying to do/say? 2. What do I know about the cultural setting of the time that helps me understand the images and metaphors that God uses to communicate to and with people? 3. How does what I'm reading here fit the bigger story of the biblical record? The McLane Church Life Group mission statement: We eliminate barriers to give people access to Christ by creating small group environments where people are encouraged and equipped to Connect with God and other people, to give and receive Care, and to develop the Character of Christ.
