FieldPartner Foundations
By FieldPartner International
In this podcast, we talk about the spiritual life skills needed for longevity - a strong walk with God, knowing how to lay hold of His Word personally and understanding spiritual warfare. Without knowing how to lean into God’s wonderful care, which undergirds everything, we can easily founder on the rocks of many kinds of testing.
This podcast primarily features the teachings of our co-founder Ross Paterson.
