In a world where ministry trends come and go, and cultural pressures shape the church, how can pastors and believers cultivate a faith that endures? In this episode of Advancing the Cause, Richard Bargas sits down with author Dr. Cory Marsh to discuss his book Recovering a Vintage Faith. Together, they explore what it means to recover a faith that is rooted, tested, and unwavering—not merely nostalgic, but vibrant and practical for today’s ministry challenges. Cory shares insights on the role of Scripture, doctrine, and faithful leadership in sustaining churches through shifting times, offering encouragement for pastors and church leaders striving to shepherd with conviction and hope. Whether you’re a pastor, elder, or committed church member, this episode provides a biblical perspective, practical wisdom, and a renewed vision for cultivating a faith that lasts.
