Every Square Inch Podcast, hosted by Pastor Robert Cunningham, offers a Christ-centered critique of today’s most important issues. As theologian Abraham Kuyper once said, there is not “one square inch” in the world over which Christ does not cry, “Mine!”

This podcast will challenge the secular person and the Christian alike with the true Biblical worldview. As a Christian who is often disappointed by the secular culture’s often inaccurate understanding of the Biblical worldview, and frustrated with the “religious right’s” contributions to this misunderstanding, this podcast is extremely refreshing and challenging for everyone!

Great listen for the secular and religious!

MUST LISTEN TO! I could pass a Cares Act I would give this podcast 3 trillion stars. Compelling content for anyone - Christian and non-Christian. I’ve shared many episodes with friends and family. This hits the sweet spot between news, commentary and preaching. I’ve found each episode an absolute grand slam.

Highly, Highly Recommended
