Welcome to Between Sermons, the podcast that’s all about continuing the conversation beyond the Sunday sermon. Hosted by Pastor Brent McQuay and produced by Christian Life Center, our show offers a fresh perspective through a deeper dive into the message from last Sunday’s sermon. Our goal is to help you apply these teachings to your daily life in practical and meaningful ways, while learning more about God, Scripture, and faith through relevant and engaging discussions. We release new episodes every Wednesday, so whether you’re a long-time member of CLC or just looking for some inspiration and wisdom, be sure to join us each week for Between Sermons as we Continue the Conversation.
