Ep 981 | Doubt Your Doubts: Resisting the Lies of Deconstruction | Guest: Paul Pitts III
Today, we're sitting down with Paul Pitts III, preacher and director of spiritual life at the Village Christian School in Los Angeles. Paul explains his personal testimony, how he began to come to the Lord in the sixth grade, and how family, church, and reading Scripture played important roles in his faith journey. He shares how the trajectory of his life changed from his goal of playing in the NFL to eventually attending seminary. We also discuss the authority and power of Scripture, dealing with doubts and temptations, the definition of "saints," the power of Jesus' sacrifice on the cross, and more.\n\n---\n\nTimecodes:\n\n(01:40) Paul's testimony / NFL & pastoral dreams\n(06:30) Masters Seminary\n(09:50) Pastoral ministry / good churches\n(27:30) Doubts and temptations\n(48:11) Saints & Catholicism\n(58:10) Praying to Saints\n\n---\n\nToday's Sponsors:\n\nWe Heart Nutrition \u2014 nourish your body with research-backed ingredients in your vitamins at\xa0WeHeartNutrition.com\xa0and use promo code ALLIE for 20% off.\n\nJase Medical \u2014 get up to a year\u2019s worth of many of your prescription medications delivered in advance.\xa0Go to\xa0JaseMedical.com\xa0today and use promo code \u201cALLIE".\n\nCovenant Eyes \u2014 protect you and your family from the things you shouldn't be looking at online.
