Preacher in the Hat
A podcast about life, family & ministry with Steve, Derek & Eric. Produced by Chris. Some things are best told in story form. And we believe there is a story to tell. Hard lessons, joyous victories, or humble beginnings. The stories point to the One who wrote them. preacherinthehat.com

Core Memories
Thursday Aug 22, 2024
Thursday Aug 22, 2024
The concept of a "core memory" is that certain experiences can shape our lives. While this concept is neither biblical or scientific, there's no doubt that our past can shape our future. And, since our past can be both troubling and triumphant, we must decide Who shapes our future instead of what. We got a chance to talk about this in this episode. We hope you enjoy.

Where's God When I'm Scared?

Thursday Jun 27, 2024
Gym routines, fear, anxiety. They don't exactly tie together, but let's talk about it all! Nobody wants to talk about fear and anxiety. Human nature is to avoid them at all cost. It can prey on us at every level. God offers us freedom, but it can still be difficult to choose the peace He gives us. Fortunately, in His endless mercy, He offers this peace day after day, never leaving our side.

Thursday Jun 06, 2024
Fast. Faster. Fastest. Everything in our world is about how quickly things can get done. How quickly we can meet deadlines at work. How quickly that Amazon delivery can get here. It's easy for that "need for speed" to creep into our lives and influence our life patterns. How do we slow down the hurry so we can breathe for a second and hear His voice? Let's take our time and talk about it!
