FF Matt Wilson joins us from Grand Rapids, Michigan to talk about Faith and the role it plays in the fire service, the definition of faith, different types of firefighters in the fire service, what it's like working in the downtown area as a first responder, we talk about the problem of homelessness, how to love your neighbors and who exactly are our neighbors, and the struggles of doing the right thing vs following policy. Scripture covered: Hebrews 11:1Luke 10:25-37Matthew 25:31-40Leviticus 19:18Disclaimer:This podcast is intended to strengthen faith and encourage honest conversation about life, work, and following Christ. We’re not pastors, preachers, Bible scholars, or chaplains—we’re just firefighters having open and authentic discussions. We don’t claim to have all the answers, and we’re learning as we go. The views and opinions expressed here are our own and do not reflect those of our respective fire departments or employers. We always encourage listeners to follow their department’s protocols and standard operating procedures.
