In this conversation, Michael and Ron talk about:
- Having and maintaining an eternal perspective
- Apologetics, the defense of our faith
- The importance of spending time in Scripture daily
“The bible will be like spiritual food for you giving you spiritual nourishment. You need daily nourishment from God’s word.
Yesterday’s feast from God’s Word will not suffice for today. You must eat from it daily.”
Scripture referenced

The Wasted Years, Theodore W. Brennan
I looked upon a farm one day
That once I used to own;
The barn had fallen to the ground
The fields were overgrown.
The house in which my children grew,
Where I had lived for years–
I turned to see it broken down,
And brushed aside the tears.
I looked upon my soul one day
To find it too had grown
With thorns and nettles everywhere,
The seeds neglect has sown.
The years had passed while I had cared
For things of lesser worth;
The things of Heaven I let go
While minding things of earth.
To Christ I turned with bitter tears,
And cried, “Oh Lord, forgive!
I haven’t much time left for Thee,
Not many years to live.”
The wasted years forever gone,
The days I can’t recall;
If I could live those days again,
I’d make Him Lord of All.
