The Brad Jurkovich Podcast
Leadership. Conviction. Hope.
Hosted by Dr. Brad Jurkovich—pastor of First Bossier, national leader in the Conservative Baptist Network, and trusted voice for biblical truth—this podcast equips Christians to stand strong in today’s culture. Each episode tackles the real challenges believers face across the nation, from defending faith and family to leading with courage in the church, community, and public square.
With a proven track record of visionary leadership—from planting churches and building the Freedom Fields Sports Complex, to guiding a congregation through the largest fire in Bossier City’s history and a complete campus rebuild—Dr. Jurkovich brings biblical wisdom shaped by experience. His ministry has touched thousands through local outreach, military family support, national denominational leadership, and the weekly preaching of God’s Word across the Ark-La-Tex.
Listeners will gain practical leadership lessons, encouragement for their walk with Christ, and a clear call to engage the culture with conviction and hope.
