Why Not You?: Believing What God Believes About You with Pastor Ed Newton, Ep. 261

Listen to this episode from The Built Different Podcast with Dr. Zach Clinton on Spotify. Today on the Built Different Podcast, we’re joined by Pastor Ed Newton, Lead Pastor of Community Bible Church in San Antonio, Texas, and author of the new book Why Not You?. Ed’s story is one of prophetic calling, personal struggle, and God’s relentless pursuit. From a prophetic word at a young age to leading a multi-ethnic, multi-generational church reaching tens of thousands each week, Ed’s journey is marked by God’s hand. In this episode, Ed joins Dr. Zach and Joshua Broome backstage at the Refuel Conference hosted at Thomas Road Baptist Church to talk about the significance of spiritual gatherings like Refuel, the power of emptying ourselves so God can fill us (2 Kings 4), and what it means to walk boldly in our irrevocable calling (Romans 11:29). Ed vulnerably shares about battling imposter syndrome, moments of deep personal pain, and how setbacks have become setups for God’s greater purposes. This conversation is both deeply personal and powerfully practical, equipping listeners to confront lies, embrace their identity in Christ, and step confidently into their purpose.   Pick Up a Copy of Ed’s New Book, Why Not You?: https://www.whynotyoubook.com/  Visit Ed’s Website: https://ednewton.com/  Visit Community Bible Church’s Website: https://www.communitybible.com/  Follow Pastor Ed on Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/pastorednewton/  Attend Refuel 2026: https://refuel.org/  Get Clinically Excellent, Christ-Centered Care Today: https://christiancareconnect.com/  Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
