Roger Courville, CSP is an award-winning speaker, award-winning author, and a passionately bad guitarist. He holds a Master of Arts in Christian Apologetics from Talbot School of Theology (Biola University) and is now working on his Doctorate in Ministry — Spiritual Formation at Denver Seminary. And…all that blah blah blah means nothing if it doesn’t help you fall more in love with Jesus and the people in Jesus’ world. If we do not have sacrificial love (1 Co 13, Ro 12), we’ve got nothing, right?

About the Podcast(s)

#ForTheHope’s Daily Audio Bible is (crazy idea!) a daily audio Bible reading. We read through the New Testament in about 10 months and the Old Testament in about 14 months with a passion for just keepin’ it real, having conversations like normal people, and living out the love of Jesus better every single day.

We also publish, on most weekdays, #ForTheHope’s short #AlwaysBeReady segment where we explore an idea that helps us connect Sunday morning to Monday morning. You have to subscribe via a podcast software like Apple, Google, or Spotify to get them, but you can find examples here and here.

About Roger Courville, MA, CSP

Roger Courville, CSP is an award-winning speaker, award-winning author, and a passionately bad guitarist. He holds a Master of Arts in Christian Apologetics from Talbot School of Theology (Biola University) and is now working on his Doctorate in Ministry — Spiritual Formation at Denver Seminary. And…all that blah blah blah means nothing if it doesn’t help you fall more in love with Jesus and the people in Jesus’ world. If we do not have sacrificial love (1 Co 13, Ro 12), we’ve got nothing, right?
