Foundation and Fire

A podcast dedicated to the work of pastors and the ministry of the local church Rev. James F. Cubie is Pastor and Head of Staff at Mattituck Presbyterian Church (PCUSA), on Long Island. James received his MDiv from Union Theological Seminary (NYC) in 2004, where he: learned that he was not a liberal Protestant; discovered the continuing power and relevance of the Reformation; and saw the reality of Protestantism without Reformation (Bonhoeffer). James has a ThM in systematic theology from Princeton Theological Seminary, and is pursuing a Doctor of Ministry at The University of Dubuque Theological Seminary. The focus of the DMin is the promise of Reformed ecclesiology in a post-Christian context. James is also a husband, father, and a recovering prayerless pastor.

"Salt and Light" is a weekly devotional that walks through the Gospel of Matthew.
The title of this podcast comes from Paul's first letter to the Corinthian church. In the third chapter, he speaks about building our lives on the only solid foundation, Jesus Christ. If you are walking through the daily fires of testing, temptation, or just the ordinary stressful stuff of life, I hope Foundation and Fire will be a blessing to you, and will draw you closer to Jesus Christ.
