The GoodLion Podcast is launching it's first mini series! We will be doing a deep dive into the topic of Righteousness. For episode one, we ask the  question, what exactly is Righteousness? Aaron Salvato presents the topic, and we hear a helpful explanation from Dr. Tim Mackie (the Bible Project.) Join us as we go deep into this Biblical topic!

My good buddy Brian Higgins interviewed me about my sermon prep methods!

Pastor Dan Braga shares his testimony: the story of a young man who felt like an outcast. Dan struggled with addiction and substance abuse, but through His darkness, Jesus kept gently drawing him to the light!

In episode two of the GoodLion Podcast, Aaron Salvato interviews his co-host Brian Higgins about preaching, youth ministry, and why he started a podcast called “First Time Bible Teacher.”

Things discussed:

It was a great interview! We hope it blesses your socks off.

Katelyn is a girl who fell in love, and then had her heart broken. But in the midst of that heartbreak, Jesus shows up in her life and makes himself, and his great love, known to her.

In the first episode of the GoodLion Podcast, I sit down with Ben Courson to interview him about the recent loss of his brother Peter-John. We discuss loss, grief, coping with tragedy, and share experiences and insight from our lives.

Today on testimony, we are going to hear from pastor Christian Trainia. In our last episode, Christian shared his story of darkness, depression, and suicide, and the miraculous story of how Jesus’s love broke through all of that pain. If you haven’t heard his testimony, seriously, stop what you’re doing and go listen to the previous episode. It’s amazing. Christin shares about how Jesus spoke to him in the middle of a suicide attempt, and how he eventually came to Christ not through a Christian evangelist but by reading an anti Christian book by an an atheist. It’s fantastic stuff.

In this episode, I sit down with Christian and ask him a bunch of questions that I had while he was giving his testimony. I really enjoyed this interview with Christian, and I hope you will to. With that, let’s go to the interview. 

A while back I did an interview with my friend Christian Traina, and you guys have got to listen to his story! This is a guy who as a young man battled depression, violent thoughts, suicide, and the loss of his own faith as he drifted to atheism. The way Jesus shows up in his life is unlike anything I've heard. Truly a story of how God's love broke through the darkness. Check out the interview, and if it blesses you, share it with others!

Every single person at some point deals with loneliness, the feeling of being left out, unwanted, and alone. When these feelings come, how can we deal with them? Today on ask a youth pastor, I sit down with my friend Ben Courson to hear his thoughts on loneliness, and how Christians can face it with courage.

A new podcast coming soon!
