In this live episode of The Perdue Podcast, Pastors Aaron and Heather Perdue sit down with guest minister Jonathan Shuttlesworth of Revival Today during a week of revival meetings in Colorado Springs. The conversation moves from seed-faith giving and personal testimony to contentment, healing, and what it looks like to let the Holy Spirit lead. Watch the full episode above, then keep reading for the key takeaways.
God Gives Seed to the Sower
Jonathan explains why he believes God appeals to people with what He wants to do for them, not with guilt or manufactured pressure, pointing to the way God spoke to His people in Malachi. Heather shares her own testimony of tithing through a devastating season of loss and watching God supply seed to the sower, from the sale of her house and a boat to a community that rallied around her.
Faith and Contentment Belong Together
Heather and Jonathan point out that faith can quietly become a way to disguise discontent. Jonathan’s encouragement is simple: quit thinking you should be further along in life, enjoy where you are today, and do your best with what God has already put in your hands. He ties contentment to a peace that no threat or circumstance can hold over your head.
God Can Move Fast
Jonathan shares how a church launch was announced from the pulpit and opened just six days later, including the story of a hotel manager who had been asking for a church in her state. Heather adds how quickly God can turn a season around in her own story, from not wanting to remarry to being engaged within months.
Joy, the Holy Spirit, and Every Generation
The conversation also explores why joy belongs in ministry, how the presence of God draws every generation, and how a morning prayer time can lead people into the Word. You will hear testimonies of healing too, including a teenager healed at a youth night.
