  • Digging Deeper with Tim Boettger: "Honoring Where We Came From"
    Dec 8 2025

    The "Digging Deeper" series is category of episodes on CC Podcast: Conversations where CC Broadcast Radio Preacher, Tim Boettger, further discusses topics and ideas raised during his radio sermons, but in a conversational interview format. As you'll notice, the title of each episode mirrors the title of the radio sermon on the CC Broadcast that it corresponds with. It is our hope that these supplemental conversations will help listeners grow even deeper in their Christian faith and their understanding of God's Word than is possible by only listening to a sermon.

    Here are links to the two CC Broadcasts (audio) featuring the two parts of the message referenced in this conversation:

    Part 1: https://player.captivate.fm/episode/91f28ae4-616b-4e49-8211-b3286f4377b9/

    Part 2: https://player.captivate.fm/episode/be0b6a34-b3fa-4f93-b5b7-07d2286150da/

    Here is a link to the video of the same message, from Nazareth Church's website: https://vimeo.com/1129171125?fl=pl&fe=sh

    Here's a link to the John Ortberg sermon, "It All Goes Back in the Box," which was referenced multiple times in this conversation: https://youtu.be/G9Y_gbrcz8w?si=ukFzBi5d05iF0yl7

    Here's a link to the CC Podcast: Conversations episode featuring Ron Gruber, which was referenced multiple times in this conversation: https://player.captivate.fm/episode/025ee88b-1897-48b6-a560-9d99e075e4c6/
