CrossPolitic and Faithwire are teaming up to stream live on Facebook Sunday nights at 7pm Pacific time. Tune in here at 7pm PAC time tonight! Don’t worry if you miss us live, you’ll still be able to download the show on your favorite podcast platform. Also, you can tune in and watch us on Direct TV Friday nights at 8:30pm Pacific time on NRBTV channel.
A couple housekeeping items:
First, our Club members are huge for us as we desire to utilize CrossPolitic to engage the world, for God’s glory and the Church. So please consider joining our club, and partnering with us to fulfill this mission. We have finally released our Worldview Shotgun Series which is free to our club members. All you have to do is to register on our website, wait for club verification, and then you will be able to access our club portal. Of course email us at [email protected] if you run into any problems.
Second, CrossPolitic will be hosting a live show at Christ Church’s Post-College Life Conference with hip-hop artist Timothy Brindle. We’d love to see you there!
Thirdly, here is our Amazon Wishlist for those who have been asking. Thanks for your help, and for sending much-needed equipment our way.
Lastly, we are slowly building out CrossPolitic into a network. We want to fight laugh and feast while engaging in politics, business, sports, theology, food, recreation, and more. So over the next month or so, we will be adding a couple more shows to our podcast. This week we are adding How to Build a Tent, our first business podcast hosted by entrepreneur Matt Williams. You can find him on twitter here: https://twitter.com/HowToBuildATent.
Enjoy the network!
