The Roll Call Room Presented by 10-7 Ministries

Welcome to The Roll Call Room. We begin our look at the first part of Philippians where the Apostle Paul is facing some big trials. However, he reminds us that God is at work in all circumstances.

We will all experience change, some of it unwanted. So how do we navigate that change, especially if we think that it's unfair. Join us as we start our series on change

The Christmas season is supposed to be a season filled with joy, laughter, and friendship. However, for many people the holiday season is the complete opposite. So what are some ways to deal with the holidays when they aren't so "Merry & Bright?" Be sure to check us out on Facebook and Instagram, and go to our website ten-seven.org.

One of the questions I get asked a lot from first responders getting married, or entering a serious relationship is: "How much do I tell my spouse about the tough calls?" Well, that's not an easy question to answer. However, I've had a few of those myself, so my wife Crystal and I sat down to have a conversation about it.

As first responders we're frequently frustrated. Those frustrations can become so commonplace that it's hard to think past them. However, we can, and we should take steps to put those things in a proper perspective. The Apostle Paul gives a very practical way to help us do that, and we'll look at what he says in this new episode of the 10-7 Ministries Podcast!!

FDR famously said: "the only thing we have to fear is fear itself..." Is that true?  Maybe... I do know that fear is one of the most powerful emotions that deal with.  It shows itself in our anxieties, it can make us ill, and it can ruin our lives?  So, we'll look at some of what the Bible says about fear, and look at easy ways we can try and address it in our own lives. Be sure to check us out on Facebook and Instagram, and cruise on by our webpage too.

First responders tend to stuff their feelings and move onto the next call.  However, this isn't always the healthiest thing to do in the long term.  This episode looks at the importance of taking time to process through the difficult things that we experience, with one of the major parts to that being allowing ourselves to really "feel" that range of emotions.  

We all know that trials will come, they're inevitible.  Today we consider a passage in James that will seem difficult to take for some.  Hwever, I encourage you to push through and know that there is always hope!

We all have those times where we feel alone, and maybe feel like God has given up on us.  Maybe we even feel like someone who is lost in the desert, wandering around with no relief in sight!  The desert can be a desolate place, but in the Bible it plays a different role.  We'll look at that different role, and the importance of approaching difficult times with the right attitude and perspective. 

As first responders we're willing to bring in backup if we need help on a call.  We need to be willing to ask for help in other areas of our live's too.  Today we'll look at what the Bible says about community, and think through ways that we can come alongside our brothers and sisters who need some backup to get through the tough times.

Welcome to the 10-7 Ministries Podcast! This will be podcast that seeks to address issues faced by first responders.  We want to look at some of these issues through a Biblical lens to help first responders gain some perspective and help them address these issues that are so often ignored.  We'll be releasing new episodes soon.  In the meantime, check out our website, Facebook, and Instagram pages!

Sometimes I think that we look at happiness and joy as the same thing. However, they are not the same. Join us as we look at the difference between the two, and the impact that they have on your life.

What does it mean to be loved by God? Often we are the biggest barrier to really experiencing God's love. Join us as we seek to understand what it means to be loved by God.

It's been awhile since we've dropped an episode. Well, WE'RE BACK!! Here is the story of the last year, why we've been quiet, and what God is doing!

Sometimes God uses unlikely people to help bring about change in our lives. Other times, it can be hard to see how a situation might be a good thing. We look at ways to think about things that might make change easier to navigate.

I recently sat down with my friend, Marcus Walker. Marcus recently finished his first year as a police officer. We talk some about that first year, his faith, and how that faith influences the job.
