Welcome to The Blacksmith Chronicles Podcast, where faith meets purpose. This is the official podcast of Ryan Johnson Ministries, where we are here to forge stronger disciples and equip the Body of Christ for God’s glory.

In this episode, we explore the concept of spiritual weapons within the body of Christ. Are these divine tools meant to be wielded actively in our everyday lives, or should they remain reserved for times of intense spiritual warfare? Join us as we dive into Scripture, unpack the purpose and power behind these weapons, and wrestle with the responsibility of using them in a world that desperately needs the light of Christ. Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion on whether the church is truly equipped and ready for the spiritual battles ahead.
