In this powerful July 9th episode of Coffee with the Superintendent, Dr. Jack Farmer takes us into Hebrews 10:32–39, where early Christians endured suffering with joy because they had something better—Christ Himself. What does that mean for us today, especially in a world full of comfort, convenience, and digital noise?

This First Pour explores the biblical link between endurance and salvation, the danger of shrinking back, and how to build Christ-centered resilience in seasons of peace so we’re ready for the fire when it comes.

Then, in One Last Cup, Dr. Farmer unpacks new research revealing how social media consumption is rewiring young minds—creating what experts now call “ADHD-like syndrome.” We discuss the neurological, educational, and spiritual costs of constant digital distraction—and what Christian schools and homes must do to respond.

You’ll also hear alumni birthday shoutouts, a special remembrance of Michael Wha (Class of 2010), and a reminder about upcoming elective course registration.

This episode will challenge you, comfort you, and call you to live with a mind fixed on eternity.
