In this twenty-fourth episode, Pastor Luke starts a mini-series of four shows dedicated to what he learned from attending the retirement ceremony of his dear friend Captain Brad Geary. The Grinder is the concrete pad where Navy SEAL candidates are ground up and spit out physically, mentally, and emotionally in order to separate the wheat from the chaff. Only the strong will survive. Only those willing to “grind” will be counted worthy to become a SEAL. What lessons can we, as Christian men, learn from the Grinder? As Christians, God blesses the man who remains steadfast under the trial of sanctification. The man who stands the test of time, demonstrates his justification to be legitimate, proving himself worthy to be called a Christian. After he has completed his lifelong process of sanctification, he will then receive his crown of life. Respect the Grinder. Yesterday was easy!
