Patrick December 22, 2025

I absolutely love the people God has brought together in the scope of doing this podcast. One very good friend is Troy Frasier who helps run the Revived Thoughts podcast which takes sermons of the past and gets people to record them so they can be heard now in the present. I know! What a great concept! Here’s Troy and I sitting down to talk about why Church History matters for us today and all people in God’s historical timeline. Enjoy!
