Before I called my podcast "The Faith of the Fathers," I called it "The Gospel For Planet Earth."
This is one of those older episodes but it is a MUST listen.

Kelsey's story is beautiful AND tragic. Kelsey went through hell before she found someone who could show her the true love of the Father. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
A much needed light-hearted break:

The Apostle Paul said to a
Congregation in Philippi: “...there wasn’t a single other church, except yourselves, that entered into a two-way partnership with me, giving and receiving.” (Philippians 4:15).
How much would our churches pay today to have the Apostle Paul come and preach? Talk about a headliner! Yet, in his own day, even many Christians were afraid to associate themselves too closely with Paul.
The faithful, mature, Church has ALWAYS been small. That doesn’t mean the church is small. Jesus described us as “sheep,” which is not flattering. But it is factual. Sheep need to be led. Don’t be discouraged if you feel alone or in the minority. If you are leading with courage and conviction, you are part of God’s “A team.” The Apostle Paul was also ostracized in his day. Today, billions of people read his words and attribute the status of “the word of God” to his letters. That is vindication!
Don’t look for the praise of men. To be praised by God is the prize.
I hear many Christians saying, "I don't expect any justice on this side of heaven." Why? Did God say that we shouldn't expect it? What if the problem is, "You have not because you ask not"? Will justice come on our time? Not likely. But it will come. Jesus said, "You will know the truth and the truth will make you free." Truth is justice and it ALWAYS comes eventually. Don't give up. The Kingdom of God is here.
Just because it is fun.

Every father leaves his children an inheritance. But what kind of inheritance will we leave? Our posterity will judge the quality of our work.

"If my Dad had only been there, I would not have done half the stupid things I did as a teenager..."
Why does Dad's presence or absence in our life make such a difference? Josh Saltz knows the answer. Josh joined me in the studio this week to share his journey from fatherlessness to wholeness.
