    006 | Pastor Mick Ewing & Bryan Hoshide

    What happens when experience meets reason, and ministry meets philosophy? In this episode of the Faithful Servants Podcast, Will and Jake sit down with Pastor Mick Ewing from Juneau, Alaska, and Brian Hoshide, CBI Kauai instructor and longtime Bible teacher. Together, they explore what it means to serve faithfully in a world obsessed with relevance—and why the deepest faith is often found in quiet obedience. In this episode, Mick and Brian share: • Calling Without a Title — how both men found themselves in ministry by simply saying “yes” to God’s opportunities. • Plural Leadership — why Mick’s church leads through shared eldership instead of a single “lead pastor.” • Devotion vs. Emotion — Brian’s challenge to redefine “quiet time” as true devotion, not just emotional hype. • Truth Over Trends — their warning against chasing cultural relevance instead of preaching eternal truth. • Recovering Theology — why this generation must rediscover philosophy, metaphysics, and systematic theology to stand firm in a confused world. If you’ve ever felt torn between intellect and faith, or struggled to find depth in a shallow generation, this conversation will sharpen your mind and anchor your heart in truth. ⸻ Resources & Links • Pastor Mick Ewing — Juneau, Alaska • Brian Hoshide — Instructor at Calvary Bible Institute Kauai • Recommended Reading: Summa Theologica by Thomas Aquinas, Systematic Theology by Norman Geisler, The Attributes of God by Dr. Joseph Holden • Submit your questions on Instagram: @cbikauai • Learn more about Calvary Bible Institute: cbikauai.com
