Episode 68: Jason Perry, Navy SEAL to God's Warrior

Let us know what you thought of the show!

There’s Christian light. And there’s Jason Perry. The former Navy SEAL, former SWAT Team member, and current pastor is not only Christian heavy, but wants us to see Jesus as a meek warrior too.
That’s the savior he found, after growing up an atheist, attempting to fill an abandonment hole with patriotism and coming to the end of himself, right into the arms of Jesus.
Speaking of his time as a Navy SEAL and hints of Jesus he encountered, "So these breadcrumbs that God put there are just men of God in my life that I noticed all have one thing in common. They all had an incredible peace about them.
The rest of us were raging and thrashing and dealing in a high octane profession, guys who have to decompress somehow. The only effective way I've seen people handle that without damaging themselves was Christians. Everyone else, we went to the bar and went to women and went to other things. But they went to the Lord and they were the only ones who handled it. They were the most resilient people I've ever seen.”
