In this episode of the Podcast – Jim Putman sits down with Blake Whiteman, Gabe Cleave, and Sam Meredith to talk about standing firm in the middle of the struggles and circumstances that we encounter in this world.
They discuss that in life’s trials, we often question God, but in the book of Thessalonians Paul calls us to find gratitude even amidst chaos, believing that He is shaping our lives. This faith brings hope beyond circumstances, anchored in the promise of Jesus’ return. It inspires active love, showing readiness for Christ’s return. Faith leads to hope, then love—a journey of deepening commitment.
Some of the things they cover are:
* Recognizing God’s active presence in our lives, even in the midst of trials and challenges.
* Understanding that true faith leads to a fundamental shift in values, identities, and actions.
* Finding assurance not in fleeting circumstances but in the promise of resurrection and the imminent return of Jesus.
* Assessing our readiness not through rituals or dogma alone, but through the authenticity of our love for one another.
* Committing to continually deepen our love for one another, recognizing it as the hallmark of our faith’s maturity.
