Christ at the Checkpoint, Pt. 1
J.M. Smith loves the Word of God. He wanted to learn all he could about its history, its meaning and its prophecy. So, he studied. And he studied, hard… What he found didn’t seem to check all the theological boxes he was raised to believe, so he went right to the source – the cradle of […]
Lost History of Christianity, Pt. 2
Today Norm and his guest, Phillip Jenkins, conclude an eye-opening and invigorating look into the real history of Christianity.
Lost History of Christianity, Pt. 1
Where do my people come from? For millions of avid genealogy hobbyists, it’s a burning question. They find it fascinating to uncover all the unique accomplishments and discoveries of their ancestors.

The Miracle of Bethlehem Bible College
Yesterday we introduced you to Bethlehem Bible College, a modern-day miracle. Just knowing that faithful Christians are bearing witness to the risen Christ in the city of His birth is encouraging enough.

Today Bethlehem stands in the shadow of distrust, politics, militarization, and miles of reinforced concrete. The wall that […]

Norm and his guest conclude their discussion on this most […]

He followed the path beaten out across the Middle East by the most famous of ‘seekers’ – the Wise Men of biblical fame. He […]
Teaching China’s Best at Peking University, Pt. 1
In the Summer of 2014, Norm and Cher hit the road for the academic equivalent of the Olympics – teaching the top-flite students of the world’s largest nation. It was also the launching point for new avenues of ministry, as you’ll hear today and tomorrow. Cher joins Norm in the studio.
On the Road with Compassion Radio
Nurses do an immense amount of good every single day. So, how does someone who serves as a nurse do even more exceptional things? By stepping out in faith. Victoria Base Smith is certainly extraordinary. As a nurse, professor, missionary and adventurer, she’s been just the kind of person that inspires Compassion Radio and thousands of listeners. In […]
Power in Persecution
“I find I am strong when I am weak…” So the Apostle Paul lays out one of the foundational paradoxes of the Christian faith. It’s a living reality for the persecuted Church of China. We’ve seen that paradox close-up, and it changed this ministry for good.
