In episode 73 of the In All Things podcast, guest host Dr. Gayle Doornbos, professor of theology at Dordt University, interviews Howard Schaap, professor of English at Dordt and author of forthcoming book, Brooding Upon the Waters: A Memoir of Farming, Fishing, and Failure in America's Lost Landscape.

As part of a recent series on the In All Things blog, Doornbos and Schaap discuss disappearing landscapes, rural communities, rich histories, and the unexpected beauty that comes from committing to a place, inviting us to consider how faithful attentiveness deepens our sense of belonging in the places to which we are called.

In episode 72 of the In All Things podcast, guest host Dr. Dave Mulder and Paul Matthews, Australian teacher, consultant, author, and TEDx speaker, discuss what it means to teach and learn creatively in an AI-driven world.

Their conversation invites us to rethink creativity, explore purposeful uses of AI, and pursue growth and kingdom impact over convenience or efficiency.

In episode 71 of the In All Things podcast, guest host Sarah Moss invites In All Things blog contributors Donald Roth and Dr. Michael Kearney to discuss what it means to live with discernment in a world marked by complexity and tension.

Together, they reflect on how to challenge our blind spots and confront the idolatry that often grows out of our assumptions. Drawing from their recent essays for the In All Things blog, Roth and Kearney invite us to pay closer attention to the contradictions we carry and to pursue a faithful life in the midst of them.
