When a loved one dies . . .
While the subject of death may loom large in popular drama, television and movies, our culture leaves us ill-equipped to handle end-of-life issues in real life.

A webcast interview with Jim Palmer
Jim Palmer is author of Divine Nobodies--Shedding Religion to Find God, and founder and leader of the Pilgrimage Project, an emerging church in Nashville, Tennessee. Join Greg Albrecht as he chats with Jim about how he retained authentic Christianity while leaving the institutional church behind.

New CWR video -- Greasy Grace
Some believe that grace can't be trusted. They think God's grace allows people to slip out from under rules and regulations. Greg Albrecht and Steve McVey discuss the "greasiness" of grace.
