What Really Matters?
The ”What Really Matters” seeks to discuss the Bible and talk about what really matters in this life? On this podcast there will be Sunday school classes, sermons, personal testimonies, ministry strategy, practical trainings and much more! The idea of this is to produce content that you can share with people on how to be saved and mature in Christ. For believers, we desire to equip all Christians to share the gospel and make disciples as the Lord Jesus has commanded us. ”What Really Matters” is run by Aaron Vasquez, who is the Director of Campus Movement at the University of Illinois-Springfield. Aaron is an ACBC certified biblical counselor and is pursing his MABC through Faith Bible Seminary in Lafayette, IN. Aaron has been a full-time college minister for 8 years and his passion is to see Christian’s share the gospel and labor for the glory of God. Aaron is married to his wife of 6 years, Alana, and they have a four year old son, Oliver and one year old daughter, Thea.
