And how do we as Christians overcome this addiction to comfort and convenience?

Responses to the death of Elizabeth II range from casual indifference to profound grief. Who was this remarkable lady and why is she so historically and ecclesially significant? We all know that the monarchy sits uneasily in our modern world, but Elizabeth II, more than any other member of the royal family, built some remarkable bridges in her long lifetime. In this episode, we're joined in our discussion by Stuart McAllister, who grew up in Scotland during Queen Elizabeth's reign.

BIO:Originally from the Calgary area, Stuart McAllister has been living with his wife Carie and four children in El Salvador for the past 11 years.  They are passionate about seeing lives changed, both in the local Salvadoran people as well as in the thousands of Canadians and Americans that have come to partner with Shelter Canada.  Since 2011, Stuart and Carie have been working to develop a team of Salvadorans with the hope of seeing them know and follow Christ as they carry the organization's mission forward.  Despite the uncertainty of the world around us all, they trust that God is doing a powerful work in this small, impoverished nation, and are excited to be able to partner in whatever ways they can.  Stuart entered his current role as CEO of Shelter Canada in 2020.SHELTER CANADA: Shelter was born in 2001, after a series of earthquakes left hundreds of thousands of people in El Salvador without a safe home.A small group of friends from Alberta felt compelled to help, so they flew down for one week and built three homes for three different families.  While this number may seem small, in light of the few hundred thousand families living in unsafe conditions in the country, it was what formed the vision and mission of Shelter Canada today.Since then, the organization has grown to employ over 36 local Salvadorans and has built over 4,000 homes for families in need in El Salvador.But we don't just build houses, we also build hope.  Our mission is to spread the gospel will providing homes for every Salvadoran in need.  And in the process, we strive to build people up and teach them valuable skills so they can pour back into their own communitiesResources:https://www.sheltercanada.ca/Social Links:https://www.facebook.com/ShelterCanada/

Is there any mission field as close to our hearts as our own family? If you are a parent, it can be an overwhelming burden to pass on your faith to your children. It is a unique form of "evangelism", much different to sharing with other adults but still has some similarities. Today Andy and Kristi speak to the authors of Faith That Lasts: A Father and Son on Cultivating Lifelong Belief where they outline three dangerous myths that we all too easily buy into: that fear can protect our children, that information can save them, and that their spiritual education belongs to the experts. Stuart McAllister comes from a non-Christian home in Glasgow. He joined Operation Mobilization in 1978 and was once imprisoned for distributing Bibles in Yugoslavia. Stuart joined RZIM in 1998 as the International Director and today serves as Global Support Specialist.

"Science flies you to the moon. Religion flies you into buildings," said Physicist Victor Stenger. Is religion indeed the source of war? If the Ten Commandments tell us not to murder, how do Christians explain the violence we see in the Old Testament?

Jo Vitale–who holds a DPhil (PhD) in Old Testament studies from the University of Oxford–and special guest and seasoned RZIM apologist Stuart McAllister discuss these listener-submitted questions on warfare in the Bible, Christian pacifism, and the radical teachings of Jesus.Have a question you want the Ask Away crew to cover?
