Faith in the Family
Two of the Trainer brothers, Sam and Gabe, join us for this week’s episode about faith in the family. They talk about what it’s like being involved in faith at college with brothers (including their younger brother Joey) and how that helps them keep each other accountable and have someone in their corner. Sam and Gabe share specific ways their dad and mom have implemented faith as the foundation of their family and how valuable it has been to have “here’s the deal” moments. They reflect on the importance of loving & supporting your family, leading by example, and knowing that whatever you do on God’s behalf will be good. Come be reminded that each time we go back home to our families we have the chance to share what God has been doing in our lives to give Him glory.

The Heart of Mission
Whitney Klym, a third-year FOCUS missionary and team director, joins us for this week’s episode of A Gem to Remember to show us the heart of a missionary. She talks about what FOCUS is and what it meant to her while at the University of North Dakota. During some of her first small groups in college, she had spiritual conversations with ladies which taught her that Jesus is a friend. She shares the impact of one person who invested in her and sparked her desire to say “yes“ to helping others encounter and know the Lord. Whitney speaks into the sacrifices worth making while living mission as well as the misconception that one must have the title of a missionary to live it. Tune in to hear how Jesus humbly teaches us “the little way” so we can reach souls and make disciples of all nations.
