Christian Outdoors Podcast

When church becomes optional the church suffers and so do you. God has established the church not just as the hope of the world but as a tool in the life of believers to hold them accountable and also to be a place of fellowship, service, worship, and growth.

This past week I got lazy with my personal protective equipment and got lit up by bees. It was not fun and it was painful. What can we learn about the Christian life from this moment of pain? Tune in and find out! In the WNY area? Stop by Hartland Bible Church and meet Jon in person! Interested in having Jon come speak at your next sportsman's event or just want to chat about life? Shoot him an email at jon@christianoutdoors.org.

Last week I had a squirrel dig up one of my baby oak trees. It was frustrating but I believe there is a lesson in it. Join me this week as we discuss the idea of being firmly planted as we take a brief look (its devotions not a sermon) at Colossians 2.6-7. Wish to discuss this topic more or have Jon speak at your next men's event or sportsman's event or just want to connect? Shoot Jon a text: (716)425-2630.

Stetson Stafford was born and raised in the mountains of North Carolina, in a small town called Plumtree in Avery County—the home of Grandfather Mountain. Stetson has been hunting for as long as he can remember, ever since he was big enough to carry a BB gun. While his dad didn't focus much on deer or turkey hunting, he raised his brother and him running black bear in the mountains with dogs and occasionally took them deer hunting. His grandfather and great-grandfather later introduced him to deer and turkey hunting, which only deepened his passion. Hunting has always been a major part of his life, and he enjoys pursuing just about anything that has a season. He was saved at 10 years old and surrendered to God's call to preach at the age of 20. He married his wife, Bethany, in 2020, and they now live in South Carolina, where she's from. They have a four-year-old son, Hudson, and are expecting a baby girl this July. Today, at 30 years old, he is in full-time evangelism, traveling across the country preaching in revivals, youth meetings, wild game dinners, and wherever else the Lord opens a door. The outdoors have given him another platform to share the gospel with people he meets from all over who may never step foot into a church.

Galatians 6.9 says, "Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary." Wherever God has called you stick with it! Fruit is never produced overnight but is always something that takes time.

Jesus asks a lot of questions in the Scriptures and they are still questions that are applicable to our lives today. Today we look at one of the many questions that Jesus asked. Be blessed my friends!
