In this episode, we hear the story of how pastor Herb Rubi got saved and began pastoring his now 30-year-old church in Sacramento, California. Pastor Herb, just like his brothers, went into life innocent, but lost that innocence as they got more involved with the party lifestyle and drug abuse. After his brother, Ray Rubi, got saved, him and his brothers soon followed. This propelled pastor Herb and his later wife into God’s calling and wonderful ministry.🔔 Subscribe to stay updated on future episodes!👍 Like, share, and comment to spread the love!Our links (Spotify, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, etc.): https://bio.site/liupodcastNew Believer?

In this episode, we sit down with Pastor Rick Warren. Now serving as a pastor for several years, Rick reflects on the incredible journey of God’s redemption in his life. Growing up in a home with no knowledge of God, his life revolved around chasing the pleasures of the world. With little positive influence around him, he was immersed in partying, drugs, money, and the lifestyle the world says leads to fulfillment. But that path only left him empty—and eventually cost him everything he loved. Rick shares how, in the middle of that brokenness, God stepped in and completely transformed his life. Through his story, we see that God’s redemption truly knows no limits and that He lives up to His name as the Redeemer. Hear how one invitation to church changed everything, and how God took Rick from a life of destruction to a life of purpose.🔔 Subscribe to stay updated on future episodes!👍 Like, share, and comment to spread the love!Our links (Spotify, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, etc.): https://bio.site/liupodcastNew Believer?

This week on the Light It Up Podcast, we are honored to be joined by Pastor Scott Lamb from the West Las Vegas Potter's House. With 40 years in ministry, Pastor Lamb has seen God come through in impossible situations. From the overnight change in his alcoholic father, or the way God turned a church with no vision for the future into one that just sent out 11 brand new churches into the world this April, he has learned to trust God for the unfeasible results. However, it hasn't always been this way. Not only do we discuss his ministry and the impact of it, but we hear the raw stories of how Pastor Lamb grew up--from being a drug-fueled hippie to a radical guitar player for Jesus. Tune in for what Rafael and Wyatt have determined as the greatest episode they've ever had.🔔 Subscribe to stay updated on future episodes!👍 Like, share, and comment to spread the love!Listen on all platforms: https://bio.site/liupodcastNew Believer?

Today on the Light It Up Podcast, I have the priveledge to document my mom (Patricia Taylor)'s story. Her story takes on a new approach unlike any we've heard on this show. While it has its share of drinking, smoking, and partying, her life was surrounded by violence. As she grew up, resentment toward her mother deepened, while her bond with her father became stronger. Because her mom would physically and verbally abuse her constantly, she felt as if she never did enough for her mom, and growing with this insecurity and self-hatred, she learned to lean on the love of her father. Once her father died, however, she could only turn to the one true Father that was always there. Get ready y'all, cause this episode gets emotional, and there were definitely tears—tune in to hear her full story.🔔 Subscribe to stay updated on future episodes!👍 Like, share, and comment to spread the love!Our links (Spotify, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, etc.): https://bio.site/liupodcastNew Believer?

In this episode, we are joined by Pastor Nate Rush. Nate Rush has been saved for 15 years; however, he is no stranger to tragedy. Between being addicted to drugs and alcohol at 9 years old, his parents separating, and losing three brothers, Nate did all he could to try and rebuild his family that was crumbling before his eyes. With his work with music not ever solving anything, Nate truly felt like he was losing his family while trying to save them. Even though he grew up rejecting church in every fashion, God still reached out to him and worked in his life—even though he didn't want Him to. Tune in to hear how Pastor Nate's life is now blessed immensely, and how he still has life even after death.🔔 Subscribe to stay updated on future episodes!👍 Like, share, and comment to spread the love!Listen on all platforms: https://bio.site/liupodcastNew Believer?

From the story of David and Absalom in 2 Samuel 15 and from experiences in his own life, Pastor Peter illustrates how resentment develops, how it forms, and how it ruins when left unresolved.
