Today, we are excited to launch a brand-new resource from Paul Tripp Ministries called, “The Connecting Podcast”. These conversations between Paul, his co-host Shelby Abbot, and special guests will be up to 2 hours long, diving deep into the gospel and how it transforms our daily lives. We'll talk about suffering, evangelism, work, sexuality, culture, and so much more. In this inaugural episode, Paul will introduce you to his co-host for every episode, Shelby Abbott. Shelby is an author, radio host, campus minister, and conference speaker on staff with FamilyLife, a ministry of Cru. His passion for university students has led him to speak at college campuses all over the United States and author the books "Pressure Points: A Guide to Navigating Student Stress", "DoubtLess: Because Faith is Hard", and "What’s the Point?: Asking the Right Questions about Living Together and Marriage". He and his wife, Rachael, have two daughters and live in Downingtown, Pennsylvania.
