Jake and I were thrilled to record this podcast conversation with Heath Lambert. We talk about Heath’s own story of abuse and trauma and healing and how that has impacted his ministry. Heath told us about his book Finally Free and why he wrote it and we discussed various ways to do accountability well.

Dr. Heath Lambert has been preaching at First Baptist Church of Jacksonville, Florida since January 2016, and became Senior Pastor in September 2017. Prior to serving at First Baptist, Pastor Heath served as the Executive Director of the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors (ACBC), and as a professor at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. He is married to Lauren and they have three children: Carson, Chloe, and Connor.

He is the author of several books, including The Biblical Counseling Movement After Adams, Finally Free: Fighting for Purity with the Power of Grace, and A Theology of Biblical Counseling: The Doctrinal Foundations of Counseling Ministry.

This man needs no further explanation; we hope you enjoy the conversation.
