My name is Matthew Curtis, and I want to welcome you to the Foundational Truths for Life Podcast.

When I was four and five years old, I had a series of divine experiences with God where I received my call to preach and teach the Good News of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. Eventually, the call of God was burning so fervently inside of me that I made the decision to wholeheartedly commit my life to Jesus and the ministry He was calling me to. But four years into ministry, the Lord gave me a clear revelation of how much I didn't know. I was divinely inspired to immerse myself in the Word of God and in communion with Him so that I might fulfill His plan for my life and finish my course with joy! For His Kingdom's sake! For His people's sake!

Being a preacher's kid, I was in church at least 3-5 times per week growing up, but many times, 5-7 days a week! My parents were also missionaries to Honduras, Central America, and we even lived there for a short time. Needless to say, I heard a lot of preaching and teaching; I'd witnessed many things. I heard good and encouraging sermons, bad and discouraging sermons, every kind of sermon you could think of, and every kind of sermon you shouldn't think of!

Because of this, I had developed a skewed and one-sided version of Scripture and New Testament doctrine in many areas. While there were a lot of magnificent things I learned and received, I wasn't ever taught the foundational principles of any Scriptural truth. I realized I was like the man in the Bible who built his house on the sand instead of the solid rock foundation of Christ, the living Word.

As a result, for the last nineteen years, I've prepared my heart to seek the Lord and to search the Scriptures, believing the Holy Spirit to uncover the precious foundational truths of Christian living that I'm now privileged to share with you in the podcast.

As the Lord helps us, some of the many topics we'll discuss are...
* How to Spend Time with God
* Foundational Truths for Your Marriage and Family
* How to Be a Doer of Jesus' Love Command
* Kingdom of God Finances
* The First Principles of Jesus' Teachings
...and much more.

I invite you to come with me on a journey through the Bible as we discover and uncover foundations of Scriptural truth, principles based on the love of God and faith towards God, and by His grace, we'll learn how to practically apply them to our lives today in Christ.]]></itunes:summary><image><url>https://artwork.captivate.fm/92ebbf9e-1a82-455b-b75d-c1814b8a8fa8/qUgq7-R0VcGU26fwGwNqKfW1.jpg</url><title>Foundational Truths for Life</title><link><![CDATA[https://foundational-truths-for-life.captivate.fm]]></link></image><itunes:image href="https://artwork.captivate.fm/92ebbf9e-1a82-455b-b75d-c1814b8a8fa8/qUgq7-R0VcGU26fwGwNqKfW1.jpg"/><itunes:owner><itunes:name>Matthew Curtis</itunes:name></itunes:owner><itunes:author>Matthew Curtis</itunes:author><description>Hello, family!
