Interview – Steve and Debbie Osborn: Teamwork

Written By Ellen Bennett
 

I admire the way Steve and Debbie work as a team. They've been married for over 38 years and were involved in ministry together before that. They've worked with college students with Cru, and more recently, served in church ministry. They've seen God heartily at work over the years, including through the extravagant love of friends who came alongside them when their infant son wasn't growing. You'll appreciate their stories of God's faithfulness and the impact of other believers in their lives. It's a reminder to all of us how important each one of us is in the body of Christ.

Show notes 

Steve mentions the book, The Divine Conspiracy, by Dallas Willard, especially referring to the definition of “disciple,” or being an apprentice.
