The Foreign Saint's Podcast
For Christians who feel like foreigners among their peers. Deconstructing myths surrounding Christianity to help you construct a life that is obedient to King Jesus the Messiah and dissecting desires to test what is truly in us. To use this platform as a means to glorify God and make disciples for Jesus of all nations. This is Christianity presented authentically, vulnerably, hopefully, triumphantly, faithfully, and in a way I pray the one true God would call lovely.
