Nature // S10E04
Just as God created many upon many different types of creatures, each with their own abilities and specialties, so God creates us, humankind, each with our own gifts and talents. Because of this, we don’t do things the same… especially in sharing His gospel. By His grace, there are many ways, ways that can be used according to our giftings. Today Peter Schriemer joins us to share how his love of nature has turned into a lifelong career showing others the beauty of what God has created and what He has done!

Verses from Silent, But Loud:
Romans 1:20
Quotes from today’s episode:
“Stop being nervous about how you talk about God! How would you talk about your wife, or husband, or your friend, if you were communicating to someone new? You would just talk about them! … Talk about God like that, like he’s real, like he exists!”
Peter Schriemer, The Pantry Podcast, Silent But Loud
“Why do we share? Because it’s exciting! Because God’s creation is exciting, his Son is exciting, the Cross is exciting, what the Holy Spirit does for us every day is exciting!”
Shea Watson, The Pantry Podcast, Silent But Loud
“It’s not about how much you know, it’s about who you know.”
