791. Steve Sarkisian | The Connecting Podcast Ep. 039
If you have been blessed by anything that Paul Tripp and Paul Tripp Ministries has produced over the last two decades, it's largely because of the sacrifice of one man: Steve Sarkisian.

Afterward, Steve walked away from tens of millions of dollars in personal fortune, sold his Rolls Royce, and helped co-found Paul Tripp Ministries in 2006. This month's guest on The Connecting Podcast is our very own co-founder and vice-president of Paul Tripp Ministries. You'll be blessed and encouraged by his story of redemption!

It's one of the darkest and deepest delusions that a human being can buy into - "I can do what's wrong and it won't make a difference."

"A church that does not exist to reclaim heathenism, to fight evil, to destroy error, to put down falsehood, a church that does not exist to take the side of the poor, to denounce injustice and to hold up righteousness is a church that has no right to be.

096. Be Good and Angry [Survival Skills 15]
