SoulFood is a twice-weekly podcast ministry made available for free worldwide. It is focused on discussing biblical passages and topics in a truthful manner that isn’t embellished with fluff and just gets to the heart of the matter and the cold, hard truth. There will also be plenty of times when such passages and topics will be paralleled and tied in with real-life issues and vice-versa. The overall goal of this podcast is to speak truth and to share the God of the Bible and the true love of Christ with the world.

The truth is under real and constant attack from every which angle, and that includes the truths surrounding the Holy Bible, the Lord God, and the only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. Modern generations are being falsely lead to believe that ALL truth is subjective (to their own opinions), that there is no real, hard-and-fast truth, and that the God of the Bible is someone comparable to an always-angry puppet-master genie who is also a hypocritical prick and can be manipulated to suite individual desires and lifestyles on a whim. Unfortunately, anyone who actually believes that is terribly wrong, and this podcast aims to dispel these dangerously false beliefs and to help immature believers elevate their understanding to something more mature and comparable with solid food.

Hello! My name is Jared Snyder (aka. Pastor J). Having struggled with so much hardship, including poverty, hunger, and homelessness, among other things, I’ve been through my share of trials and tribulations. In these tough seasons I have come to better understand who the Lord is, who I am, and how I fit in to the world around me (or not). It is a humble honor to serve the Lord and his people in the capacity I have been called to do so.

Apart from all the experience I’ve acquired going through the school of hard knocks, I possess a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre with an emphasis in acting and directing. I have also completed about 75% of a Master of Divinity degree with an emphasis on Marketplace Ministry. I am incredibly fond of aviation and have begun the process of obtaining a Commercial Pilot certification (I’d like to be able to fly corporate/charter jets).
