Who are you… really? In a culture obsessed with labels, platforms, and personal branding, it’s never been harder to answer that question with confidence. In this episode of the Faithful & Firm Podcast, Pastor Scott Beardsley tackles the growing identity crisis shaping our homes, our churches, and our generation.

Are we defined by our past? Our pain? Our politics? Our feelings? Or has God already spoken something better over us? Through a biblical lens, this episode exposes the danger of building your identity on shifting ground and points you back to the unshakable truth of who you are in Christ.

If you’ve ever wrestled with comparison, insecurity, or the pressure to “be someone,” this episode offers clarity, hope, and a firm foundation to stand on.

You don’t have to guess who you are. You just have to believe what God has said.

In a world that glorifies busyness, burnout, and “the grind,” where does a follower of Jesus draw the line? In this episode of the Faithful & Firm Podcast, Pastor Scott Beardsley takes on the tension between hustle culture and the biblical call to Sabbath rest.

Is nonstop productivity a badge of honor, or a quiet form of unbelief? What does it mean to trust God enough to stop striving and actually rest? And how does Sabbath shape our spiritual health, family life, and long-term faithfulness?

From Scripture to real-life pressure, this episode challenges the lie that your worth comes from what you produce and invites you back into the rhythm God designed: one of work, worship, and holy rest.

If you’re exhausted, overextended, or constantly running on empty, this conversation is for you. Slow down. Breathe. And rediscover what it means to be faithful and firm.

In a culture that celebrates personal feelings over absolute truth, it’s getting harder to know what to believe, and even harder to speak with confidence. In this opening episode of the Faithful & Firm Podcast, Pastor Scott Beardsley tackles the popular idea of “my truth” and contrasts it with the unchanging truth of God’s Word.

You’ll discover why truth is not something we create, but something God has revealed, and how standing on biblical truth brings freedom, clarity, and hope in a confused world. Whether you’re wrestling with doubt, cultural pressure, or simply want a stronger foundation for your faith, this episode will challenge and encourage you to live faithfully and stand firm.
