God‘s story is the story of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. But it‘s also humanity‘s story, the story of a world fallen and blown apart and of a world reshaped and restored. It‘s the beginning of all beginnings and the end of all ends. Join Brent Siddall and the Rev Ian ‘Reido‘ Reid as they explore God, time, salvation and the cosmos. Explore the stories of Western culture as they pivot and interact with the main narrative of salvation history.

Women now have professional opportunities beyond what previous generations ever imagined. ‘But as our roles in public life have grown, the church’s vision for women’s work and calling has not grown with us, leaving us feeling isolated and under resourced’.
Brent talks with Joanna Meyer, director of public engagement at the Denver Institute for Faith and Work. Joanna leads public events, hosts the ‘Faith and Work’ podcast and founded Women, Work, and Calling, a national initiative that equips Christian women for godly influence in public life. Prior to joining the Institute, Joanna worked in global telecom, nonprofit consulting and campus ministry. Joanna’s new book from IVP America is ‘Women, Work and Calling: Step into your Place in God’s World’.
