How do I navigate life doing what I love but also being a good witness for Christ? Their struggles are real—on and off the field.

This week’s episode of the Iron Stream Podcast features author, speaker, and foster care parent and advocate Dr. John DeGarmo. This conversation sheds light on the mission field right in all of our own backyards—foster care. Unpacking myths that surround the issues of foster care, Dr. DeGarmo compels us to think outside of the box. While we are all not called to be foster parents, we are all called to do something in service to this often underserved community. Whether it be through fostering, unconditional love and support for foster families, meals, school supplies, or prayer—it is clear that foster care is today’s next great mission field for the church and people of faith.

In the inaugural episode of the Iron Steam podcast, hosts John and Will dive in to the deep end of the emotional and spiritual pool with Randy Hemphill—author of The Restored Man. Sharing personal brokenness and hope in the process of restoration for men’s hearts, Randy engages and inspires men to take a deeper look at relationships, marriage, and the freedom that comes from allowing God to be the only One who defines and fills us in order to love others well. Filled with interesting car restoration metaphors and an epic trek up Mt. Kilimanjaro, men will relate to the process that is needed to break down some of our broken parts in order to be continually restored back to God’s image.
