Missions has always been a focus of the Fundamentalist Movement in America. JC, Brian, and Nathan talk about missions in and out of the IFB and what it should look like according to Scripture. 

JC, Brian, and Nate continue the conversation about Discipleship with Dr. Steve Pettit. Dr. Pettit got his M.A. in Pastoral Studies at Bob Jones University. He went on to become the President of Bob Jones University where he served from 2014 - 2023. Steve also served as the director of Northland Camp and Conference Center from 2002 to 2011. In recognition of his contributions, Bob Jones University, Northland Baptist Bible College, and Ambassador Baptist College all awarded him an honorary Doctor of Divinity degree in 1997. Dr. Pettit is passionate about Discipleship. Presently, he utilizes his gifts as a compelling communicator and expositor of Scripture with a focus on leadership. He travels as an itinerant evangelist with a gospel bluegrass musical team. Steve and his wife, Terry, have four adult children and five grandchildren.

He is passionate about Discipleship because of the powerful change it made in his life. Robby does not have a squeaky clean background, but his story is a powerful example of the change the gospel makes in the lives of those who believe and follow Jesus.
