In this powerful episode of Ordinary People with Extraordinary Lives, host Arlenys Buckelew sits down with Pastor David Jordan, the Family and Marriage Pastor at Redeemer Bible Church, to explore his remarkable transformation journey.

In this episode of Ordinary People with Extraordinary Lives, we sit down with Pastor Kevin Hay as he shares his faith journey. Kevin grew up in an unbelieving home in Columbus, Ohio, but was greatly influenced by his Christian grandmother. His life changed at age 20 when he came to faith in Jesus Christ, which led him into ministry and a passion for theological education.

He recounts his experiences in various churches, his pursuit of an MDiv from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, and his Doctorate of Ministry from The Master's Seminary. Kevin also opens up about balancing pastoral responsibilities with family life, homeschooling, and the joy of witnessing lives transformed through expository preaching.

At the time of this recording, Kevin was a pastor at Redeemer Bible Church. He has recently transitioned to a new position at Shepherd's House Bible Church in Chandler, AZ, where he serves alongside pastors Costi Hinn and Brett McIntosh. 

Tune in to hear how God's hand has guided Pastor Kevin's extraordinary journey.

In this episode, host Arlenys Buckelew delves into the sin of perfectionism, inspired by a thought-provoking discussion from Darrell Harrison and Virgil Walker on the Just Thinking Podcast. Arlenys shares how perfectionism has subtly crept into her own life—through social media comparisons, job interviews, and personal relationships—resulting in self-focus, anxiety, and a neglected spiritual walk. 

Drawing from Darrell Harrison's episode "A Biblical Response to Perfectionism," she explores the five commandments of the perfectionist: self-worship, unrealistic standards, reluctance to accept help, criticalness, and a constant craving for others' approval. 

Arlenys invites listeners to abandon the futile pursuit of personal perfection and instead embrace Christ's perfect work and the process of sanctification. 

Don’t miss this heartfelt reflection on finding freedom from perfectionism in the gospel.

In this profoundly moving episode of "Ordinary People with Extraordinary Lives," we sit down with Patty and Marty Wolf, a couple whose story of faith, loss, and redemption spans over 40 incredible years together. Their testimonies serve as a beacon of hope and an affirmation of the power of God's word to transform lives.

Patty shares her upbringing in a charismatic Christian home, her service in the Navy, and her subsequent quest for a deeper understanding of Christianity. In the Navy, Patty was first introduced to a true biblical study, marking the beginning of her spiritual walk. Moving to Missouri post-navy introduced her to Pastor John MacArthur's teachings, sparking a pivotal conversation with her sister about the essence of being a Christian. Despite her newfound faith, Patty faced challenges integrating her spiritual life with her professional commitments, feeling a disconnect that led her to seek more profound peace.

Marty's story begins in an orthodox, conservative Jewish family in Nebraska. Immersed in traditional Jewish practices from a young age, Marty grappled with questions about sin and forgiveness that remained unanswered within his faith community. His life took a tragic turn when he lost his first wife in a plane crash, a moment that challenged his understanding of God's presence in suffering. His spiritual journey took a surprising turn upon meeting his second wife, whose distinct approach to life and faith led Marty to explore the New Testament, transforming his understanding of forgiveness and redemption through Isaiah 53's prophecy of Jesus as the Messiah.

Together, Patty and Marty's stories intertwine to reveal the profound ways in which the word of God has illuminated their paths from darkness to His marvelous light. Their testimonies remind us of the transformative power of faith and the hope that comes from truly understanding and accepting God's word.

Join us in this captivating episode as Patty and Marty Wolf share their heartfelt testimony and insights into how the Lord brought them from darkness into His marvelous light. 

Their story is not just about the challenges they've overcome but also about the peace and redemption they've found through their faith in Christ.
