Descripción

What happens when the life you planned isn’t the life God calls you to? In this episode of the Blackfire Podcast, Daniel Black sits down with Crossroads Church campus pastor Emmett Rogersto unpack a powerful journey of calling, surrender, and leadership. Once pursuing a career in medicine, Emmett found himself wrestling with a completely different path—one that would eventually lead him into pastoral ministry. Through unexpected moments, honest conversations, and the encouragement of his wife, Emmett began to recognize God’s hand guiding him toward a purpose he once resisted. From winemaking in Minnesota to stepping into the role of campus pastor, his story is a reminder that God often prepares us in ways we don’t immediately understand. Together they explore the heart of true leadership—servanthood, humility, and deep relational connection. Drawing inspiration from the biblical story of Moses, Emmett shares how God consistently uses imperfect people to accomplish extraordinary purposes. This episode is an invitation to trust God’s direction, embrace His grace, and step boldly into the calling He places on your life. The conversation concludes with a heartfelt prayer for listeners to receive Jesus and commit their lives to His mission.

S6E6 - The Life and Legacy of Andrew Foster

In this episode of the Blackfire Podcast, we delve into the extraordinary life of Andrew Foster, a man who refused to let deafness or racial segregation limit the calling God placed on his heart. Born in 1925 in Ensley, Alabama, Foster overcame immense educational barriers in the segregated South to become the first African American to graduate from Gallaudet University.   Driven by a passion for the forgotten, Foster dedicated his life to establishing schools for the deaf across the African continent. When he first arrived in Africa in 1957, there were only 12 schools for the deaf on the entire continent; through his tireless obedience, he and his wife, Berta, eventually opened schools in different nations.   Join us as we reflect on Foster’s enduring legacy and explore what it means to say "yes" to God's calling, even when conditions are far from perfect. We hope this highlights how one person’s obedience can provide a voice to millions and create an eternal impact in the Kingdom of Heaven.
