Introducing Strong Tower

Welcome to the Strong Tower podcast! Leslie and Lisa, with diverse backgrounds, unite in this first season of Strong Tower to address contemporary challenges confronting youth. Leslie's upbringing in a Christadelphian family and Lisa's journey to baptism in 2018 from a mainstream Christian background shape their perspectives. With Lisa’s experience in the field of sexual abuse and exploitation prevention, Leslie explains their collaboration on a webinar series featuring expert Chris McKenna of “Protect Young Minds,” among others, which led to the creation of the Strong Tower podcast. They discuss plans to interview brothers and sisters with expertise in mental health, addiction, parenting, and child welfare. Finally, celebrating God's presence in life's challenges, Leslie and Lisa invite listeners to join them in engaging conversations at Strong Tower where faith intersects with real-world issues. Proverbs 18:10 “The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.”
