We’re kicking off a new chapter on the podcast with our very first guest, Benjamin Forehand. Benjamin isn’t a pastor or full-time minister—he’s an everyday guy who found himself pulled into deliverance ministry and never looked back.

In this episode, he shares some of the wild stories from his journey, but also the convictions that fuel him: why discipleship after deliverance is non-negotiable, how to step into ministry when you feel anything but “qualified,” and what it looks like to walk through life with a no-fear mentality.

Benjamin’s story is raw, bold, and challenging—and it just might stir up your own faith to believe that God can use you right where you are.
