Iron Sharpens Iron Radio

with Chris Arnzen

If you’re weary of the typical fluffy Christian radio broadcasts, you’ll find Iron Sharpens Iron addresses a multitude of topics from a distinctly Reformed Christian worldview. Chris Arnzen asks the right questions, presents guests who have the answers, and continually challenges Christians to apply their faith to every aspect of their lives.

​Every time AMBrewster joins Iron Sharpens Iron, he and Chris discuss important and excessively practical biblical truth.​
