When systems falter and shelves grow bare, every community quietly remembers who to call — the people who stay calm, capable, and steady. In this episode of Pursue the Old Paths, we take a thoughtful look at preppers, homesteaders, small farmers, craftsmen, and families who still know how to provide, repair, preserve, and steward what’s been entrusted to them.

Moving past stereotypes and fear-based labels, this conversation explores the biblical wisdom behind preparation, responsibility, and practical skill. From gardening and food preservation to fixing what’s broken and understanding seasons, this episode is a reminder that preparedness isn’t panic — it’s wisdom, and it’s an old path worth walking, no matter where you live.
