  A Covenant-Keeping God | Kevin Webb | Episode #40

  Sep 29, 20261h 50m

  Kevin Webb has served as college pastor at Lakeview Baptist Church in Auburn since 2017. In this episode, Ben and Blayne sit down with Kevin to trace God's providence through his life. He grew up in the mill town of Piedmont, Alabama, came to faith at Vacation Bible School at age 7, and was discipled one-on-one at the Auburn BCM before his freshman year even started. Kevin shares how expositional preaching at Lakeview and hearing Louie Giglio and John Piper at Passion 99 gave him a big view of a sovereign God. He also tells how he met his wife Laura at a Christian bookstore and what it cost his family to work three jobs while pursuing a PhD in systematic theology at Southern Seminary. He talks honestly about walking away from that PhD, seven humbling years pastoring East Tallassee Baptist Church, and the unexpected phone call that brought him back to Lakeview. In the second half, Kevin walks through covenant theology from Adam to Christ. He explains the covenants of Scripture, federal headship, typology, and why his understanding of how the covenants fit together leads him to baptize believers only. He lays out where Baptist and Presbyterian covenant theology agree and where they differ, and why it matters: God is a covenant-making and covenant-keeping God, and every promise He makes is yes and amen in Christ. Kevin's encouragement to college students: plant your life in a local church, among people who are not just your age.

  Chemistry, Construction, and Bible Translation: How God Used Every Detour | Josh Chance

  Sep 22, 20261h 25m

  Josh Chance didn't set out to be a missionary. He started in chemical engineering, switched to exercise science, audited financial statements for Alabama loggers, sold investments for American Express in Nashville, got a master's in education, taught seventh-grade science for six years, and built houses through the 2008 crash. Then a stranger called from Seattle asking if he'd build a Bible translation facility in South Sudan. Blayne sits down with Josh — a decade of service in Tanzania and Rwanda behind him, now back in Auburn with SIL — for a conversation that starts with a Vacation Bible School conversion and ends with the question of what's actually worth investing a life in. Along the way: why assurance of salvation can't be found by looking inward, whether a kid raised in church really "chose" anything, what it means to be a missionary in a law office or a financial advisory firm, and what happens when you're the only white family in central Tanzania the week COVID shuts down the world. There are roughly 7,400 languages spoken on earth. About 800 have a complete Bible. Around 500 still have nothing at all — no alphabet, no written word, nothing. Josh explains what it actually takes to change that, one village and one verse at a time, and why the smallest people group on the list is worth the work. https://global.sil.org/ https://tyndalebibletranslators.org/missionaries/josh-sue-chance/ 00:00:00 Cold open — Blayne and Josh Chance 00:02:21 Auburn, 1974 — saved at a Vacation Bible School 00:09:15 Did I only believe it because my parents did? 00:13:04 The assurance of my faith isn't in my faith 00:15:06 Chemistry, auditing, advising, teaching — and what "enough" means 00:21:10 Is your career a mission field? 00:33:55 The call: Bible translation in South Sudan 00:43:47 Ten years in Tanzania — what SIL actually does 00:50:17 COVID closes the country 01:00:01 How a Bible gets written from scratch 01:12:07 Two eternal things — the best investment he knows 01:18:30 How to pray, give, and get involved

  42 Years, One Church | Brother Al Jackson | Episode 38

  Sep 15, 20261h 45m

  Pastor Al Jackson led Lake View Baptist Church in Auburn for 42 years, but his path there ran through a political science degree, a season chasing a US Senate seat, and a redirect from Washington DC to a dining hall in New Mexico. In this conversation he traces his first birth in Florala, Alabama, his second birth at age ten, and the night years later when he was filled with the Spirit and God began rewriting his ambitions. He talks candidly about the brutal first 28 months of his pastorate, the temptation to build a bigger platform instead of staying put, and why he has no fear of what comes after this life.

  From the Mound to the Mission | Anthony Lerew | Episode 37

  Sep 8, 20261h 50m

  Anthony Lerew spent parts of a decade pitching professionally for the Atlanta Braves, the Kansas City Royals, and clubs in Japan, South Korea, and Venezuela, including a no-hitter that to this day remains the last one thrown in Venezuelan winter ball. He had the cars, the money, and the career most kids dream about. He was also empty. In this episode Anthony walks through growing up in a strict Pennsylvania home, a decade of heavy drinking that nearly cost him his leg after a motorcycle accident, and the moment lying in a hospital bed that changed the direction of his life for good. From the mound to the Mission.

  It's What I Do, Not Who I Am | Alex McPherson | Episode #36

  Sep 1, 20261h 35m

  Alex McPherson was the number one kicker in the country. Seven SEC offers, his dream school, a perfect 13-for-13 season, and a brother already kicking in the NFL. He thought he knew what God meant when he heard "I need you in Auburn." Then he got sick. Ulcerative colitis took him from 165 pounds to 117. He couldn't sit through a church service. He couldn't keep water down. Two medications failed, and at 21 he made the decision to have his colon removed. This is the whole story — the play where he got saved, the night at camp when he chose Auburn, the years he lost, the surgery, the Missouri game, and what he learned about where his identity actually lives.
