    Pastor and First Responder Discusses Living for Christ While Surrounded by Darkness

    Ever find yourself feeling isolated as a christian, or maybe you’re not seeing any fruit from your labor and you start to wonder if God wants you somewhere else? Michael Carrel is a firefighter/paramedic and pastor from Vermont, a very unchurched state. We talk about what it’s like having a ministry is such a spiritually tough area, and how to deal with seasons where we’re not getting the results we think we should. We also go into what it’s like working in a field like being a first responder and how that can be a very spiritually dark place as well. How can we still be salt and light to the world when everything around us seems apathetic or even annoyed by our faith? We go into all this and more!

    Ruling Your Spirit: Are Christians Following the Holy Spirit or Their Own Spirit?

    Everyone is bombarded with thoughts throughout the day, but how do you tell which thoughts are yours and which ones may be from the Holy Spirit? Some christians speak as though many of their thoughts or feelings come directly from God, but how do we discern something like this? In this episode, I speak with Eric about discerning our own spirit from the leading of the Holy Spirit. Eric offers insightful thoughts based in scripture that help to clear away the confusion when it comes to figuring out where our thoughts are coming from and what God wants from us.

    What the Grammys Tells us about the Modern Christian Culture

    Everyone is talking about what happened at the Grammys this year.  But what what few people are talking about is the presence of many of the leading Christian Music artists and their lack of response regarding what occurred at this event.  Pastor Marc Hamer and I discuss why this is a problem, what it could mean for the modern christian culture, and we go into some arguments that occurred after we had posted about the Grammys on social media.   Youtube Channel: https://youtu.be/1PBHexy0p-E Instagram: https://instagram.com/battlereadysaints?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= Logo by: https://artofkarlb.com
