Today on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly theme of Fathers in the Bible as we flipped to Exodus 18 to analyze Moses and his father-in-law, Jethro, as father-figures. We saw how Jethro provided counsel to Moses regarding his leadership, and because of the context of their relationship and who Jethro was, Moses was humble and receptive to it. Often, God places father-figures in our lives to help guide and counsel us because they may have experience or wisdom in areas we may not. We turned to the

Why Do We Keep Failing and Falling? – Dave Wiedis

2025/05/20

Counselor Dave Wiedis writes this about fallen pastors: “We’re left asking, how does this keep happening? Some might respond—’That could never be me.’ But a wiser response is more profound: Could this happen to me? What resides in the deep recesses of my own heart that might lead to self-sabotage? Why do so many who love God still find themselves trapped in sin, stuck in shame, and repeating patterns they long to break? Is true heart transformation truly

We love to read Christian biographies. You can learn a lot! One thing we’ve never thought about is diving into a “church biography." Capitol Hill Baptist Church in Washington D.C. is just blocks away from the center of American power. It has an interesting history. It’s a great example of how God works through local churches.
