What will it be like to stand before God and answer for your ministry? In this powerful message rooted in Hebrews 13 and 2 Corinthians 5, Adrian Rogers reminds pastors that every sermon, decision, and motive will one day pass before the eyes of the Lord.
While salvation is by grace, rewards are by works, and not every work will stand the test of fire. Dr. Rogers unpacks what it means for pastors to face a divine review, reward, re-evaluation, and, in some cases, regret. He also offers hope, reminding us that even small, unseen faithfulness will be honored by God.
This episode will challenge and encourage you to lead with eternity in view—and to finish well in the eyes of the only Judge who truly matters.
"The proof of my ministry is not how many we have in Sunday school… It's this: are these people becoming like Jesus?"

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
