The Salty Fitness Podcast Dr. Jon Strefling, DPT, Cert. MDT, CNC, PDS

My goal in this episode is to contrast the pagan vision of the family, household & work with the Christian vision - and perhaps this is a Christian vision that some of you haven’t considered yet. And so I hope, in doing this, it will bring about some hopefulness. I also have some practical questions to work through for men from young to retired.

In the episode, I sit down with Derek Anderson, owner of Amber Valley Construction and fellow churchman at Citygate Church in Portage, MI.

We talk about how a conquering Christian worldview changes how we live, work & rule in this life. Derek tells us about his near-death story, his pathway to owning a successful business, his 500 year plan, and his motivation for running for a civil magistrate position.

Introduction episode to our new series coming your way. We're going to do a deeper dive into work (vocation) - what it is, what it's for, it's implications on the father & husband, the mother & wife.

We dive into how Christian men who bear a false humility are making themselves weak & ineffective in their good works as Christians and as husbands & fathers in their households.
