In Light of the Gospel with Dan Blatz

Meet George, he's a new Christian, but that doesn't stop him from serving!! He only got saved 3 years ago, but has been able to bear some good fruit already by spending himself for people lost in drug addiction! I hope you'll be encouraged by George's story and especially by the hope that Christ brings to those that are at the end of their ropes!

Pete Siemens has been my closest friend over the last 15 years or so... We've both learned so much from each other! Pete is a faithful husband to his wife Helen and has 7 great kids! In this episode of In Light of the Gospel, Pete and I discuss many things related to the subject of Gender, Marriage, and the Gospel. With the direction our world is going in the area of gender and sex, our hope is th...

I would imagine most of you (especially the men) will be able to identify with Dave's story to one degree or another! Pornography has ruined many a marriage and life...BUT in this case God stepped in to SAVE! At the end of the this video I've included an uninterrupted version of Dave sharing his testimony... and it's very powerful on it's own! Dave and his wife Laura were freed from years of deep...

John Boldt was born and raised in Ontario and moved out to Alberta shortly after marriage. He and John Giesbrecht have been ministering together in Southern Alberta, and on YouTube on the channel called Bible Truths. John has a really neat coming to faith story in that it was actually an Old Colony minister that helped him to finally see that you CAN KNOW that you're saved... in fact the preacher...

John is a new friend to me. I met him online when he reached out to me after watching some of my videos. We have many of the same influences and have very much the same desire in life.... To walk in faith, to live holy, to love our wives, raise godly children, serve the church and to reach the world with the good news of Jesus Christ! John was born and raised in Ontario and moved to Alberta when h...

Greg is a good friend that I really respect! Some years ago he joined the Canadian Military...now he's signed up to be in God's Army, serving on the front lines of cross cultural missions! I think you'll be blessed and challenged by Greg's life.

After listening to Pete's story I think most people will realize that they've had it pretty good... In this interview Pete is very vulnerable and raw, you'll hear about all of his hurts, all of his ups and downs!  After losing his mom to a brutal killing and seeing his dad put in prison for 15 years it took him a while to sort through what his life was all about! His heart is now se...

Here is a bit of my back story. Where I came from and how I got to where I am now. In particular how my view of God was drastically altered by the gospel of the Lord Jesus!  Hebrews 9 and 10 have become two of my favourite chapters in the Bible. It ends all arguments between religious folks about how to handle sin! I praise God for what He has done in me, BUT I praise Him even more for what He did...

Not many people ever really drop the terrible habit of Meth. It's addiction with the first drag, and very, very difficult to ever stop! John Fehr was addicted for 9 years and it nearly cost him everything!  He's been in and out of jail, and was even separated from his family for 3 years at one point! As the saying goes, "when all hope was lost", God has set him FREE through the...

God did a great miracle when he took a young pot smoking rebel and turned him into a bible thumping preacher! haha. I love Jake and we've been friends since we were little kids.  He's recently moved off to Winnipeg Manitoba for a ministry opportunity.  In this episode we cover a good chunk of Jakes life and testimony, I think you'll be very blessed to hear all about it!

I really appreciate John Wiebe. When I first got saved he provided some sound wisdom and counsel to me. It was a joy to talk to him again and to hear more of his story. There is not doubt in my mind that John truly trusts in the finished work of Jesus and nothing else! 

Tony used to attend our youth group.... I watched the wonder in his eyes as he first understood the good news of Jesus Christ! He spent some of his teen years causing trouble and narrowly missed getting into much more serious trouble... thanks to the grace of God!  Now he's a happily married man that is a real blessing to our church. He's also a very successful car salesman at the Ford dealer...

John Janzen- Christian, husband, father, pastor, real estate agent and property owner... and the list could go on.  John has been living in light of the gospel for over 20 years and God has redeemed him from much... from sin and from religion! He's real, open, and honest and has a great passion for God's people and for preaching the gospel.  I love the man and I'm sure this conversation...

John and I go way back! We were best of friends during our teen years and have a lot of good memories! John is now a husband and a father of 5 with a little one on the way. He's also become a successful business owner! John is a very passionate Christian with an intense desire to serve God and bring Him glory! BUT he wasn't always that way, in fact his life was turned around on a dime when his fam...

As most of you know, Joe is my younger brother ( I haven't been able to say little brother for a long time!) Joe came to know Jesus shortly after I did and we were heavily influenced by many of the same people and ministries. However, Joe and I are quite different in many ways too...so I don't think this will just be a copy of me! haha.  Joe was an angry young boy that didn't know how to cont...

Carlos is a husband and father first, I guess that's what I love about him most. I've watched him go from a young ambitious man, to a mature, steady, successful man! I appreciate the way he loves his wife and provides for his family. He is a man of deep conviction and strong passion.  I think you'll enjoy this conversation!

Funny enough, my second episode is also with a friend named Willy!  Willy Penner is a husband and father and the owner and operator of Stone Mill Cabinetry in Aylmer ON.   In this episode we talk about how Willy went from bankruptcy to running a successful business with 10 employees and growing! A quote from Willy that really stood out to me was, “The goal is not to have a business....

In the pilot episode of my Podcast I have a conversation with my good friend Willy Siemens.  Willy is a godly man, a great husband and father, and ministers regularly to the church and the world around him! I hope you're blessed hearing us recount our history together. I especially hope you see the gospel centered approach Willy takes to life!  Willy and I grew up together and were inseparable for...
