Episode 15: Defending libraries, young people seeking revival (what kind?), and how to baptize a Bible student on the other side of the world

Christian Chronicle contributing editor Cheryl Mann Bacon responds to those who criticized or questioned her op-ed on defending libraries. How much control should Christians have over public institutions like libraries? Christian Chronicle intern Gabriel Grant Huff, a certified "young person," gives his take on the kind of revival young Christians seek now and how they will know when revival is real. What does the word "revival" even mean? From her home in New Mexico, World English Institute volunteer Suzie Winham used the internet to teach English and the Bible to her student, John Bosco, in Somalia. But when John decided to commit his life to Christ, nobody in Somalia would baptize him. What would Suzie do?
