Hold Fast

In this episode, I welcome my wonderful, beautiful wife, Jenna to the podcast to talk about modesty. While this is a conversation often had with women in mind, this is one for men and women to consider. Jenna shares some wisdom and practical ways we can think about modesty from a biblical perspective. This one is definitely worth your time!

Have you ever looked around the culture and asked yourself "Am I the one who's going crazy?!" Sometimes it can feel like everyone around us is walking in darkness and we wonder if there will be anyone left standing on Truth when it's all said and done. Paul has encouragement for us in 2 Timothy 3 that we can cling to in these dark days.

In this special episode of Hold Fast, Pastor Keith Foskey joins Kenny as they discuss an image that was shared on Facebook recently regarding community and fellowship at church. What should you do if you don't feel connected to your local church body? Hear from two pastors who discuss how Christians can find deeper fellowship and community at their churches.

This is a message that has brought me so much hope in times of trial and temptation, and I pray it does the same for you.

We live in a digital age where at any given time, we can listen to sermons, podcasts, interviews, etc. focused on Jesus and his Word. But should we spend more time-consuming content online or engaged with our church family? Should we listen to other pastors more than the pastor at our church? What about online church? Is that just as beneficial for our souls as physically gathering with the body?

Often in Jesus' ministry, we see large crowds following after Him. While He always had compassion on them and often healed them while He taught, He never wavered on the Truth for the sake of appeasing the crowds. Jesus wasn't interested in the approval of men - He sought the approval of His Father above all things. Do we do the same?

I have a guest on the show today - Bradley Bennett is the pastor at City Church Bartram and he joins me to have a conversation about how God has shaped how we see ministry over the past few years. Whether you're a pastor or not, this episode gets deep into what the Church is supposed to look like and how we should function to reach our world for Christ. Hear from two guys who still have much to learn but who have gone through some pretty radical shifts in how we think about what it means to be a pastor.
