I have joined the ranks of the podcasters.
My friends Kevin DeYoung and Collin Hansen and I communicate with each other on a daily basis. (Free advice: find yourself friends who are smarter and godlier than you—it’s good for your humility and will spur you on in the faith!) We wanted to make the conversation public, talking about some of our shared interests—hence the title, “Life and Books and Everything.”
We are now in “Season 2,” and if you want a sample, the show notes are below from our most recent episode.

We hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoy having these conversations!
In this episode of Life and Books and Everything, Kevin, Collin, and Justin discuss the recent scandal involving Jerry Falwell Jr. and the difference between a therapeutic confession and one that admits guilt and sin, what habits of rest and recreation they practice, what their favorite biblical commentaries are, and lastly, they discuss Samuel James’s article, “Which Enemy? Which Doorstep?”
This episode of Life and Books and Everything is brought to you by Crossway. A specific book from Crossway we would like to highlight for our listeners is Family Discipleship: Leading Your Home through Time, Moments, and Milestones by Matt Chandler and Adam Griffin. In this book, Matt Chandler and Adam Griffin help families develop a sustainable rhythm of gospel-centered discipleship through a guided framework focusing on moments of discipleship in 3 key areas: time, moments, and milestones. Each section provides parents with Scriptures to consider, questions to answer, structures to implement, and ideas to try out.
