He grew up in a Muslim home but found his faith in Christianity through personal experiences and encounters with the Holy Spirit. He highlights the importance of finding a supportive and accepting community in a church, where individuals can grow and be encouraged in their faith. Pastor Nur Rashid also discusses the challenges and hypocrisy he witnessed in the Christian community, emphasizing the need for authenticity and genuine transformation. His story serves as a reminder that true Christianity is not just about cultural practices, but about a personal relationship with God and a commitment to living according to His teachings. Joining a ministry can provide the accountability and community needed for spiritual growth. Acknowledging and utilizing people's talents in ministry is important for their engagement and effectiveness. God's timing and His work in our lives are crucial in relationships and ministry. Pastoral calling can be influenced by family heritage and personal conviction. Surrendering our dreams and plans to God's calling is essential for fulfilling His purpose in our lives. Seeking God's will and making Him the ultimate destination brings fulfillment and blessings, regardless of our circumstances. Being a pastor is not just a title, but a calling that requires becoming what God has called us to be. Discipleship involves loving and valuing people from all backgrounds and helping them grow in their relationship with God. As missionaries, we must rely on God as our main help and not depend solely on outside ministry support. Building a thriving work for God requires breakthroughs with different people groups and populations. The verse 2 Corinthians 5:17 reminds us that in Christ, we become new creations and old things pass away. Recommended books: 'Disciples Are Made, Not Born' and 'The Master Plan of Evangelism'. Prayer requests: a new building location, breakthroughs with different people groups, and financial provision for the mission. Sound Bites "God saved me and turned my life to the gospel. And ever since I became now, now I truly am a pastor." "Christians just lean on grace, they lean on the cross, but there is no actual change in lifestyle is what he saw a lot of." "I think God's calling me to be a pastor" "I can't go to New York until my whole family's saved" "God's plan for our lives are the best and they are unfathomable"

Carrie grew up in a Mormon family but turned away from the religion. She got saved at 11 years old and had a strong foundation in prayer. After going through personal struggles, she rededicated her life to Christ and became fully committed. Carrie and Pastor Scott met and got married after a short period of dating. Growing up in a church that is considered a cult by others can create confusion and challenges in understanding faith. Following God's will and purpose for your life is essential in ministry and marriage. Relying on Jesus and the power of the Holy Spirit is crucial in times of loneliness and difficulty. Pioneering and pastoring a church can be challenging, especially when starting with limited resources and support. Building a strong foundation in faith and being rooted in Jesus is vital for enduring the trials of ministry. Having a mentor and support system, like Pastor Campbell and Miss Connie, can make a significant impact on one's spiritual journey. Overseas missionary work can be a transformative experience and can shape one's faith and ministry. Trusting in God's faithfulness and following His leading can open doors to new opportunities and experiences. Never doubt your calling, even in the face of trials and persecution. Go to God until you find peace and breakthrough during spiritual battles. Supernatural miracles can happen in your life. Children can have their own powerful testimonies and experiences with God. Challenges and attacks can come even when serving God. Stay faithful and trust in God's plan. God protected Kerri's son Josiah from the harm the devil had planned for him. Having a personal relationship with God and not comparing oneself to others is crucial. Recognizing the reality of spiritual warfare and fighting back against the enemy is important. Trusting in God's plan and finding contentment in one's unique calling is key. Kerri's favorite scriptures are Romans 8:28 and Jeremiah 29:11.

Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Pastor Pablo Catala 09:46 Growing Up in a Life of Crime and Violence 33:05 The Search for Answers and Encounter with Jesus 45:02 Making a Clean Break 55:04 Pioneering in Spanish Harlem 01:07:40 The Power of Transformation and the Role of a Pastor 01:18:11 Challenges and Growth in Living for God 01:26:47 The Importance of Compassion and Empathy 01:41:33 God's Plans and Purposes for Our Lives 01:51:33 The Ministry of Healing and Emotional Wholeness 02:01:34 God's Provision and Guidance in Ministry 02:02:23 Seeking God's Heart and Praying for His Will Takeaways Pastor Pablo Catala's testimony is a powerful example of God's transformative power in a person's life. Growing up in a violent and criminal environment, Pastor Pablo was exposed to drugs, gangs, and violence from a young age. Despite his success in the illegal business, Pastor Pablo felt empty and broken, searching for something more. His search for meaning led him to explore different religions, including voodoo, but he found no true peace. Eventually, Pastor Pablo started attending churches but was disappointed by what he saw. His journey of transformation and redemption highlights the power of God's love and grace to change lives. Sometimes, we go through periods of searching for answers and feeling ignored by God, but He is always there and has a plan for us. Trying different religions and exploring different paths can be a part of the journey to finding God. Meeting the right person can profoundly impact our lives and lead us to a deeper understanding of God. Breaking clean from our old lives and filling our lives with the things of God can bring transformation and purpose. God's grace and love can change even the most broken relationships and bring healing and restoration. Having a pastor who cares and mentors is crucial to spiritual growth and development. Pioneering in ministry comes with challenges, but God can do great things with perseverance and faith. Reaching people in a big city like New York requires empathy, compassion, and a willingness to serve. Balancing ministry, family, and personal life is important for a healthy and fruitful life. Surrendering one's life to Jesus brings transformation, purpose, and the opportunity to impact others. Being the first couple launched out from a church to pioneer a new church is a big responsibility and a significant step in ministry. Moving to a new city and starting a church can be a whirlwind experience, but it is important to fulfill the community's needs and rely on God's guidance. Ministry is a journey of growth and learning, and pastors need to be humble, compassionate, and willing to learn from their mistakes. It is crucial for pastors to help people develop a strong relationship with Jesus and not become overly dependent on the pastor. God's plans often differ from our desires, and it is important to seek His will and trust in His timing. Bridgeport has been a place of blessing and growth for Pastor Pablo and his church, and they have seen the power of God at work in healing and transforming lives.

Summary: Pastor Louie Lobato shares his testimony of growing up in a pastor's house and the influence of his father's ministry. He talks about his salvation experience at a young age and its impact on his life. Pastor Lobato also discusses the challenges of comparing his testimony to others and the importance of understanding the condition of the heart. He emphasizes the value of learning from others' experiences and not having to learn the hard way. Takeaways: Salvation can happen at a young age and have a lasting impact on a person's life. Comparing testimonies can lead to feelings of inadequacy, but it's important to remember that salvation is a personal and unique experience. Understanding the condition of the heart is crucial in maintaining a genuine relationship with God. Learning from the experiences of others can help avoid unnecessary hardships and challenges. Choosing to believe in God's wisdom and not learning the hard way The importance of obedience and trust in God's calling The power of God's love to transform lives and bring revival The impact of witnessing and making converts in the journey of faith Stepping out in faith and being willing to go wherever God leads can lead to incredible adventures and opportunities. God can use even the most challenging and unfamiliar situations to accomplish His purposes and transform lives. Obeying God's call may involve facing adversity and resistance, but He will always make a way and strengthen you through it. Discipling others and raising a new generation of leaders is vital to fulfilling God's mission. Stories in the Bible can provide inspiration and guidance for navigating life's challenges and finding hope in God's faithfulness. Evangelism is crucial in spreading the Gospel and reaching the lost.

Summary This episode of the Taking the Land podcast features Pastor Angel Ortiz, who shares his testimony of transformation from a life of crime and gang involvement to becoming a pastor. He joined gangs at a young age and was involved in criminal activities such as theft and drug dealing. However, his involvement in sports, particularly football and wrestling, gave him a sense of belonging and purpose. Despite his athletic success, Pastor Ortiz's criminal activities escalated, leading to dangerous encounters and betrayals. However, the influence of his brother's conversion to Christianity eventually led Pastor Ortiz to reconsider his lifestyle and seek a new path. Angel Ortiz shares his incredible journey from a life of fear, violence, and involvement with the Mexican cartel to finding salvation and forgiveness in Christ. He recounts the intense experiences of being targeted by enemies and the moment he encountered God's love through the witness of a pastor. Angel's life takes a dramatic turn as he decides to leave his old lifestyle behind and embrace a new life in Christ. Takeaways The influence of a positive community, such as sports teams, can provide a sense of belonging and purpose for individuals at risk of getting involved in criminal activities. Even in challenging circumstances, there is always hope for transformation and redemption. The consequences of a life of crime and drug dealing can be severe, leading to dangerous encounters, betrayals, and constant fear. The influence of a family member or loved one who is praying and witnessing can have a powerful impact on someone's life, even in the midst of a destructive lifestyle. Salvation can bring radical transformation and a new purpose in life. The influence of a godly mentor or pastor can have a profound impact on one's spiritual journey. Pioneering in ministry requires a wholehearted commitment and a willingness to go wherever God leads. God can use ordinary individuals to accomplish extraordinary things in the advancement of His kingdom. Believers should be diligent in working the works of God and entering into their calling and destiny. Prayer is essential for the growth and expansion of the church, both locally and globally.
