The Faith of the Father(s) w/ Karl Gessler
The Faith of the Father (s) is a podcast devoted to proclaiming and demonstrating the reality of Jesus Christ—risen from the dead and actively at work today, healing the sick and casting out demons just as He did in the Scriptures.
Rooted in the careful study of the Bible and the witness of the Church throughout history, this podcast seeks to learn from the faith of the fathers—from the earliest believers to faithful witnesses in the present day. We hold that the ministry of Jesus did not end in the Gospels, but continues through men and women indwelt by the Holy Spirit and obedient to His voice.
Hosted by Karl Gessler, The Faith of the Fathers features candid conversations with those who have walked out of deep trauma, abuse, and bondage and have found real healing in Jesus. It also includes interviews with believers who have witnessed and participated in profound works of God—miracles of healing, deliverance, salvation, and even the raising of the dead—through courageous and faithful obedience to Christ.
At its core, this podcast affirms a simple conviction: God intends to govern the world through human beings filled with His Spirit, living in truth, authority, and love. By returning to Scripture and the lived faith of the Church, The Faith of the Fathers invites listeners to know Jesus not as a distant figure of the past, but as the living Lord who continues His work today.

Why We Punish Ourselves — Even After the Cross
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Both Christians and non-Christians often live under an unspoken burden—the sin of self-punishment.
It doesn’t always look like rebellion. Sometimes it looks like humility. Other times, it feels like responsibility, discipline, or “paying the price.” But beneath it all is a quiet refusal to fully trust the finished work of Christ.
In this episode, we explore how self-punishment becomes a spiritual obstacle that keeps us from walking freely into the Kingdom of God. For Christians especially, this struggle can stall discipleship—not because we reject the Gospel, but because the truth of it has not yet reached the deepest places of our souls.
The Gospel is not just something to believe intellectually. It is something that must re-form our inner world, dismantling shame, false repentance, and the need to atone for ourselves.
This conversation is an invitation to let grace go deeper—to stop punishing yourself for sins Jesus already bore, and to finally live as someone who is truly forgiven.
