In this episode , we spotlight a small-town pastor facing  trouble for doing what many would call a simple act of compassion.Pastor Bryan of Dad's Place church in Ohio, is staring down a 60-day jail sentence—not for a crime of violence or fraud, but for alleged fire code violations. The city claims the church lacks proper sprinklers, even though similar buildings like local motels operate without them. Despite the legal threats, the congregation remains united and unwavering in their mission, standing strong in faith as the fight for religious freedom continues.

Summary of Message: “God's People in the City” by Pastor Bryan Hudson, D.Min. This message focuses on God's call for His people to commit to long-term ministry and outreach, especially in the urban context, under the theme “Each One, Reach One.” Drawing from Acts 18, Pastor Hudson reflects on Paul's ministry in Corinth, emphasizing that God told Paul in a vision, “Do not be afraid... for I have many people in this city.” This refers not only to current believers but to those who would be saved. Key scripture Text: Acts18:9, Now the Lord spoke to Paul in the night by a vision, “Do not be afraid, but speak, and do not keep silent; 10 for I am with you, and no one will attack you to hurt you; for I have many people in this city.” 11 And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.  Key Themes: God Knows Who Will Be Saved—We Don't God, in His foreknowledge, knows those who will respond to the gospel. Our responsibility is to share the message with everyone—we are not told who will or won't respond. Romans 8:29–30 outlines the process: foreknown, predestined, called, justified, glorified. The Power and Necessity of the Gospel Romans 1:16: “The gospel is the power of God to salvation.” Programs and outreach are good, but they must be vehicles for presenting the gospel. The Concept of “Locus” as Ministry Focus "Locus" means the central area of activity. Paul's “locus” was preaching and teaching where God sent him, even staying for long periods to build impact. We each must identify our personal ministry locus and stay committed. Faithful Commitment Bears Fruit Ministry impact takes time, consistency, and sometimes suffering. Like Paul, we may face opposition, but God can shift us to nearby, fruitful places (e.g., Paul moved next door when rejected at the synagogue). Being planted and focused leads to long-term results. Salvation Process is God's Work—but Requires Our Obedience God does the calling, justifying, and glorifying. Our job is to preach, share, and position ourselves so others can hear and respond. Don't Be Distracted or Discouraged Ministry requires resilience. Not everyone will receive the message. Even if we don't see results, we may be sowing seeds others will water. Christ Is Our Everything 1 Corinthians 1:30 says Christ becomes our wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption. No one can boast—salvation is fully God's work. Final Challenge: Recognize that God has people in your city who haven't heard yet. Be intentional about your focus and committed to your calling. Share the gospel faithfully—through outreach, in relationships, and wherever God places you. Conclusion: The city is full of potential believers waiting to hear. Our role is not to figure out who they are, but to be faithful in sharing, knowing that God will do the work of salvation. As Pastor Hudson put it: “Get a real locus—something you can take to heaven with you.”

Did you know that the predictions found in the book of Daniel are so accurate that skeptics claim the book had to have been written after they occurred?  In "Sealed Vision" Pastor Bryan outlines how the book of Daniel not only predicted Alexander the Great's rise to power, but we also learned how this leader learned about himself and his battles, all from the book of Daniel, even though that book was written hundreds of years earlier.Support the show

To one degree or another, we all long for transformation, whether on a physical level or a spiritual one. In this week's message from Exodus 34, Pastor Bryan walks us through a transformation that happened to Moses, one that was brought about by time spent in the presence of God. The reality is that true gospel transformation isn't something we can manufacture. Though we can ready the environment for such change in our lives, it is ultimately the Holy Spirit who brings it about. And when he does, it serves as an incredibly powerful witness to the watching world.

In many cultures around the world, names are a big deal. More than just what someone is called, names often imply identity and even purpose. In this week's message from Exodus 34, Pastor Bryan explores a passage that is quoted numerous times by the Bible itself, a passage that reveals not just the name, but the very character of God. When we think rightly about who God is, we can approach his throne boldly, with the confidence and assurance that his unchanging character provides.

BIBLE STUDY NOTES AND RESOURCES Summary: "You Are the Salt of the Earth: What is the Salt of the Covenant?" – Bible Study by Dr. Bryan Hudson This Bible study explores Jesus' declaration, “You are the salt of the earth” (Matthew 5:13) and examines the deeper meaning behind the "salt of the covenant" referenced in Leviticus 2:13. Dr. Hudson explains that salt symbolizes influence, which is central to the believer's purpose and identity. Just as salt preserves, purifies, and adds flavor, Christians are called to influence the world through godly living and covenant relationship with God. Key themes include: Influence as the essence of salt: Salt's historic uses (purification, preservation, healing, and value) all reflect its power to influence, just as believers are called to influence the world through God's presence in them. Covenant relationship: The “salt of the covenant” represents a perpetual, faithful relationship with God, marked by commitment and consistency, not just temporary benefit. Spiritual formation through SHAPE: Using Rick Warren's acronym (Spiritual gifts, Heart, Abilities, Personality, Experiences), Dr. Hudson explains how God shapes believers through trials (fire) and divine influence (salt). Seasoned by fire: Trials refine faith like fire purifies gold or forms stainless steel—painful but purposeful, producing strength and Christlikeness. New Testament application: Jesus shifts the salt metaphor from ritual to spiritual reality—"have salt in yourselves and peace with one another" (Mark 9:50)—emphasizing inner transformation that leads to external impact. Living as influencers: Believers must first be influenced by God to influence others effectively. A lack of God's influence leads to a loss of “saltiness” or spiritual vitality. Practical outcome: A life seasoned by God results in peace, stronger relationships, and the ability to represent Christ as both salt and light in the world. Ultimately, Dr. Hudson teaches that to be the salt of the earth is to live under God's influence, embody His covenant, and positively impact others with purity, purpose, and perseverance.

This week, Pastor Bryan encourages us to have hearts on fire as he recounts the experience of two disciples on the road to Emmaus. We can often have disappointed hearts due to unmet expectations but we mustn't forget that God is walking alongside us on this journey of life. If we have listening hearts aligned with God's will and His truth, we can recognize and know His goodness. Our hope is restored when Christ abides in us.  -Featuring Bryan Ost
