Episode 70: A passionate pursuit with Robby Lashua
A highly anticipated interview is hitting your feed today! We are so excited to be sharing the conversation our host Sarah Schalow had with our longtime friend Robby Lashua! Sarah and Robby met to record in early May of this year. Those of you who have attended Desert Springs for a while will know who Robby is - and if you aren't familiar with him, you will definitely have the opportunity get to know him today! We loved having him on our staff at Desert Springs for so many years, but we are beyond excited about the work he is now doing with Stand to Reason. We got to hear so much about Robby's heart for knowing God but also about his personal life. We start at the beginning and Robby walks us through growing up in the small town of Pine in rural Northwest Arizona. He was raised in a Christian home, but at a young age was exposed to other belief systems as the area he grew up in has a strong Mormon influence. Even as a boy he learned to examine scripture to understand what was true and you'll get to hear about how his Mom, Grandpa and the AWANA program were a big part of helping him to do that. Robby moved to the valley to study at Southwestern Bible College (now Arizona Christian University) and it was there that his passion for apologetics was ignited and realized. This is where he met his wife Kelly too (her episode is linked below)! He knew that he wanted to always be studying and learning about God but also wanted to teach others to do the same. As you hear about Robby's life, you'll hear some practical wisdom on how to know what you believe is true, encouragement to keep pursuing the Lord, tips on how to learn about other faiths while staying true to your own and so much more (really, there is a lot!). We're so thankful for Robby and that he is a part of our church family! Listen and be encouraged!
