Welcome to Spiritually Fit Today with Arnie Cole. In this episode Arnie speaks with Rick Small, a financial advisor turned volunteer, about how two ordinary believers showed up when Rick’s marriage fell apart. We explore how God uses ordinary people to rescue broken lives. Memory verse: Galatians 6:9 — "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up."

4 R Action Steps

- Read: Read Galatians 6:9 slowly and Ecclesiastes 4:10. Sit with the phrases “do not become weary” and “one can help the other up.”

- Reflect: Ask: Who has steadied me in hard times? Where do I need to keep doing good even when it’s tiring? Spend 5–10 minutes journaling one specific person who needs stability now.

- Respond: Send a simple, non-judgmental text to that person — “I’m thinking of you. I’m praying for you. How can I help?” — or invite them to coffee or a short Bible study.

- Reveal: Look for gentle ways to share the gospel: ask loving questions about eternity, offer to pray, share your story, and be patient and consistent.
