Guest: Pastor Cody Hembree 

Host: Bradley Higgins

In Episode 2 of Voices of Revival, Bradley Higgins sits down with Pastor Cody Hembree for a deep, heartfelt conversation on what it means to radically obey the call of God, plant a church from the ground up, and become a spiritual father in a generation full of spiritual orphans.

Cody shares the origin story of Freedom Point Church—a church birthed in the middle of COVID-19, starting with ten people on Zoom and growing into a thriving mobile church in Middletown, Ohio. But more than numbers, Cody emphasizes obedience: doing what God says, when He says it, even if you don’t see the full picture. Together, they unpack spiritual leadership, humility, the cost of saying yes, and the deep need for leaders to embrace fatherhood in the faith.

• The birth of Freedom Point Church and its vision to reach the unreached
   
• Why obedience—not success—is the measure of a minister’s calling
   
• The difference between church transfers and true conversions
   
• How God lays foundations long before He fulfills promises
   
• The power of spiritual fathering in a world full of church hurt
   
• Lessons from Abraham: Radical obedience leads to generational promise
   
• God’s method of preparing places before people ever arrive
   
• Why we must do for some what we wish we could do for all
   
• Building a culture of compassion, restoration, and discipleship
   
• Kingdom leadership marked by security, humility, and generational vision
   

This episode is a masterclass in pastoring with authenticity—packed with prophetic insight, vulnerable moments, and practical wisdom for anyone called to lead or follow Jesus more fully.

“My measure of success is only obedience.”
