Brandon received a call into vocational pastoral ministry when he was a senior in high school. This call came from a message preached by Pastor Pete Baumgartle at New Life Christian Church in Lanesville, Indiana. The text Pastor Pete preached from was 2 Timothy 4:1-5,
“I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. As for you, always be sober-minded, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.”
Brandon takes this calling very seriously and has since dedicated his life to the study of God’s word and proper homiletics to be effective in delivering God’s word in today’s world https://mannligapotek.com/generisk-cialis/.
