Keith Cothran is the pastor of The Grove in Spartanburg, SC.

Keith's story is one heck of a journey. He started serving in the local church years ago, but after a divorce, it left him questioning some things about God. Then, after a 10-year career in law enforcement, he found God again and started working in ministry again. He eventually planted a church during the pandemic.

In this episode of the podcast, Keith shares his story of faith, loss, and redemption. He talks about the challenges he faced along the way and how he overcame them. He also talks about his hope for the future.

Keith's story is one that will inspire and encourage you. It is a story of how God can use even the most difficult circumstances to bring about His good purposes.

We hope you enjoy this episode of Pushing Through!
