IronLife Podcast with JGrooms

On this one, we sit down with brother Roy Belt and talk about some current events and the associated political climate that accompanies them - including the division occurring in churches due to political idolatry and schisms between the "far right" and the conservative right. 

In this episode we discuss recent life transitions—stepping away from and returning to pastoral ministry, changing jobs, and the pressures of new responsibilities—and reflects on how seasons of change reveal where we place our trust. Using Scripture (Malachi, Hebrews, Proverbs, Romans, Joshua, Colossians) we encourage listeners to remain rooted in God, stay obedient, stay connected to community, and allow trials to shape spiritual growth.

Join us this morning as I present the sermon I had prepared to deliver at First Baptist - Beaver. God has providentially hindered our gathering this morning but has also providentially enabled this sermon to be delivered through alternate means.
