Are young men returning to the church, and is there a growing interest in the Bible? In this episode of CITN, Rob talks with Paul Carter about young men in the church, geeking out on the Bible, and the future of ministry leaders. They also discuss gospel contextualization and making the best of the fourth quarter in ministry. Paul is the lead pastor of Cornerstone Baptist Church in Orillia, Ontario. He is also the host of the "Into the Word" podcast, available on most major streaming platforms. You can also visit www.intotheword.ca.

In the pre-show, we are introduced to our new co-host, Pastor Chris Drinnan from Moose Jaw. Rob and Geoff interrogate him about his church, family, hobbies, and preferences for power tools. They also have a conversation about bible devotions and biblical illiteracy. For more information about the podcast, visit https://www.churchinthenorth.ca/.
