221: The difference between prepper and prepared

Jun 12, 2026    Pastor Michael Gabbert

In the church I pastor, we have homesteading courses, classes that teach, canning fruits and vegetables, building a pantry. The kind of skills your grandma taught you or used to teach you. Somebody recently asked me, is this church a prepper church? So, I thought about that question, and today, I want us to talk about the difference between being a prepper and being prepared.
