Daily Faith with Philip Cameron: Special Guest Pastor Rich Butler

Pastor Rich Butler of Hope Church in Spartanburg, South Carolina joins Philip Cameron for a timely conversation about what it means to pastor boldly in a culture that has drifted from its biblical foundations. Rich shares the remarkable story of Hope Church's acquisition of a notorious strip club at the gateway to Greenville, South Carolina — a building that had been the subject of intercessory prayer for nearly two decades — now being transformed into a place of worship and gospel proclamation. Drawing on the parable of the wise and foolish builder, Rich warns that the church, like the Leaning Tower of Pisa, has developed a dangerous tilt over time due to a faulty foundation. "We have to drop a plumb line and say we're gonna stand on the truth of the Lord," he declares, calling pastors to preach without apology on abortion, gender, sexuality, and Israel. He recounts how Hope Church stayed open during COVID-19, laying hands on the sick in faith, and how a CDC representative challenged them for "denying the science" — a moment Rich used to reaffirm that the church is built on faith, not human intellect. Rich and Philip agree that America's crisis is a church crisis, not a Washington crisis, and that dark times are precisely when the light of the gospel shines brightest.

Rebuilding Family Altars

Pastor Rich Butler of Hope Church in Spartanburg, South Carolina, joins Philip Cameron to deliver a timely and urgent message on rebuilding family altars in an age of cultural collapse. Rich shares how a Holy Spirit whisper during a pastoral Zoom call launched his church into a year-long pursuit of what he calls "the ancient paths" — drawn directly from Jeremiah 6, where the prophet urges God's people to "ask for the ancient paths, and where the good way is, and walk in it." Rich unpacks how Hope Church is not only teaching families to build altars at home but is literally tearing down pagan altars in Greenville, South Carolina — converting a notorious strip club into a new campus for worship. He draws on Deuteronomy 6 to show how Moses commanded Israel to apply God's culture to their hands, foreheads, doorposts, and gates — four practical areas every family can reclaim today. "If you are not bowing down at the altar of the most high God," Rich warns, "you inevitably are bowing down to an altar in your culture." This episode is essential viewing for parents, pastors, and anyone fighting for their family in a dark season. Learn more about Hope Church at hopesc.org.
