Cold-Case Christianity - Interview with Detective J. Warner Wallace

"J. Warner Wallace is a cold-case homicide detective, popular national speaker and best-selling author. He continues to consult on cold-case investigations while serving as a Senior Fellow at the Colson Center for Christian Worldview. He is also an adjunct professor of apologetics at Biola University and a faculty member at Summit Ministries. J. Warner was a conscientious and vocal atheist until the age of thirty-five, when he took a serious and expansive look at the evidence for the Christian Worldview and determined that Christianity was demonstrably true. After becoming a Christ follower in 1996, Jim continued to take an evidential approach to truth as he examined the Christian worldview. He eventually earned a Master’s Degree in Theological Studies from Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary.
J. Warner’s professional investigative work has received national recognition; his cases have been featured more than any other detective on NBC’s Dateline, and his work has also appeared on CourtTV and Fox News. He also appears on television as an investigative consultant (most recently on truTV) and had a role in God’s Not Dead 2, making the case for the historicity of Jesus. J. Warner was awarded the Police and Fire Medal of Valor “Sustained Superiority” Award for his continuing work on cold-case homicides, and the CopsWest Award after solving a 1979 murder. Relying on over two decades of investigative experience, J. Warner provides his readers and audiences with the tools they will need to investigate the claims of Christianity and make a convincing case for the truth of the Christian worldview."

https://www.manitobaparty.ca/
 
"Wayne Sturby was born January 5, 1957 in Flin Flon Manitoba. He graduated from River East Collegiate in 1975. He moved to Snow Lake, Manitoba in 1978 to work in the mining Industry. He worked for 7 years as a miner and long hole driller at several of the mines in operation at depths of 4,000 ft. He met his wife in Snow Lake and has been married for 41 years. They have 2 adult children and 5 grandchildren.
After quitting mining in 1985, he started working in the field of financial services and remained in this field until 1991. During this time, his family moved to The Pas and he became a substitute school teacher in the junior and senior high schools.
Later, he worked with his parents, beginning in 1991, to help them establish their own trucking company. His responsibilities included dealing with compliance issues, driver recruitment and training, and maintenance. In 2010, he became a civil servant for the province of Manitoba and continues to work for them in the Department of Justice.
In the year 2000, he became a member of the Manitoba Soccer Referees Association and several years later, he joined the executive of the Manitoba Senior Soccer League.
In 2015, he worked with others to form the Manitoba Party. In 2016, he was a candidate in the Manitoba General Election running in the constituency of Wolseley. He watched in sadness and disbelief when the party was handed over to a sitting Independent MLA and he filed an Application for Judicial Review that he hoped would correct a wrong that had been committed.
As a consequence of losing the Manitoba Party, he then started the Manitoba Forward Party to keep the vision of the Manitoba Party alive. He worked closely with Elections Manitoba to ensure that the party remained in good standing and developed a good working relationship with them.
He joined the Peoples Party of Canada in 2019 and became President of the Electoral District Association of Provencher and was chosen to be the candidate in the 2019 Federal Election.
In November of 2020, he got together a small group that agreed to work together and to promote the Manitoba Forward Party, but in early December, we were able to reserve the name Manitoba Party and to Officially change our party name to the Manitoba Party."

The Art of Poetry - Interview with Anne Peterson

Anne Peterson discusses her life and work as a Christian poet.
“Anne Peterson is an extraordinarily gifted speaker who captivates our minds with her life experiences and touches our hearts with her remarkable poetry. By using personal events, she leads her audience through an exploration of life’s tragic and comic moments. The journey is sometimes intense, sometimes gentle, but always heartfelt. It is an emotional experience few people can create.”  -Esther DiMarzio, Kishwaukee College Instructor
“Anne Peterson is an engaging speaker who has the ability to make you laugh or cry. Just when you are entertained by her amusing stories, she shares a profound truth that challenges and encourages. Because she has faced a lot of life’s difficulties, almost anyone will be able to identify and be uplifted by the way she has faced tragedy. She is able to appeal to people of all ages and walks of life. Few inspirational speakers are so practical. You’ll love her!”  -JoHannah Reardon, Editor of Christian Bible Studies, Christianity Today International

A Defence of Mere Christianity - Interview with Dr. Hendrik van der Breggen

Retired philosophy professor, Dr. Hendrik van der Breggen, presents important evidences and philosophical arguments related to the major truths of Christianity.
https://www.amazon.ca/APOLOGIA-Columns-Defence-Mere-Christianity/dp/B0BRDHSBLX
 
“This collection of newspaper columns by Hendrik van der Breggen is unlike most other books you will read. ... These columns include intriguing questions, interactive dialogues, and even humorous anecdotes as issue after issue is concisely dissected and explained. In the process, readers will encounter a fresh and well-reasoned defence of the central teachings Christians have always believed along with a number of the philosophical foundations upon which they rest.” -Paul Chamberlain, PhD, Professor of Ethics and Leadership, Director of Institute for Christian Apologetics, Trinity Western University“Like [C. S.] Lewis, Hendrik has a gift for making philosophical arguments accessible, without sacrificing rigor. Those new to exploring the credentials of Christianity cannot do better than this book and those of us familiar with Christian apologetics will appreciate the wealth of suggestions provided for further study. This is a book that deserves a wide readership both within and outside Christian faith.” -Robert Larmer, PhD, Professor of Philosophy, Philosophy Department Chair, University of New Brunswick“Dr. van der Breggen is the rare scholar who strives to express complex ideas simply, and to lead readers to reflect on often unintended, and always unhappy, but logically inevitable conclusions of popular positions in religious and moral debate today. This is an accessible, broad, and lively book. It deserves a readership as large as it is!” -Rev’d Tim Perry, PhD, Professor of Theology, Providence Theological Seminary"With highly relevant, poignant stories, fastidious attention to detail, and copious (yet not overwhelming) references, including immeasurably helpful ‘for further study’ sections at the end of each chapter, van der Breggen effectively engages (with enviable wisdom and transparent conviction) the most important evidences and philosophical arguments related to the major truths of Christianity. APOLOGIA: The Columns provides expert guidance for both the uninitiated and seasoned individuals alike concerning critical thinking, logical principles of discourse, and so-called ‘mere Christianity.’ Would that every author provided as sure footing as Hendrik van der Breggen does in this text!” -Dustin Burlet, PhD, Instructor of Bible, Millar College of the Bible“For anyone looking for a comprehensive, yet easy-to-read defence of the Christian faith, I highly recommend this book. Dr. Hendrik van der Breggen has helpfully compiled some of his best newspaper columns from over the years and he also added supporting references and explanatory notes. The end product is a book that is weighty in substance, sharp in argumentation, and winsome in tone. This book is a model of what Christian apologetics should look like.” -Michael Zwaagstra, MEd, MA, high school teacher, author, Steinbach city councillor“This book is the distillation of decades of careful Christian thinking on a wide range of important topics, from skepticism to tolerance to ethics. Dr. van der Breggen models the passion for truth and posture of humble confidence he recommends to his readers. No question or line of argument is off-limits. Whatever their views, readers will find themselves challenged to think, and think again.” -Kevin N. Flatt, PhD, Professor of History, Associate Dean of Humanities, Redeemer University

Is There an Anti-Christian Bias in Public Schools? - Interview with Jim McMurtry

“...I am someone with a phD in the area of educational history in Canada, so I knew that most residential school children who died did so—tragically—from disease, like many non-indigenous children a century ago..."
"...Well, a student got upset and went down and talked to a guidance counselor. The guidance counselor mentioned something to somebody in the office, who talked to the principal, who talked to somebody in the school district. That circulated around, I presume, for a little while—but not for too long because within half an hour of my saying disease, and not murder, I was walked out of the classroom—and my career. And I haven’t taught since...”
