  • After taping an episode of the show, it became clear to me that Christine cares first about proclaiming the life-changing truth of Scripture, next about the good of her guests and her audience, and not at all about her own fame. Being interviewed on the Hope + Help Podcast is an opportunity to join Christine in her mission of service to the vulnerable and hurting in Christ’s beloved church.
