The Remnant Society Thu, 24 Sep 2026 21:00:01 -0400 https://www.buzzsprout.com/2633984 en-us © 2026 The Remnant Society yes 2612afa2-55f4-53cc-a7ee-6861439bf46a pathstoglorypodcast@gmail.com Robert Johnson episodic false The Remnant Society is a weekly serialized mystery for teens, young adults, and the families who listen together. When six cousins bury their great-grandfather — Harry Sikes, nobody quite got to know — he leaves them a letter, a locked trunk, and a strange charge: finish what he started. What he started turns out to be a trail of mysteries hidden across their family and their faith: a torn journal, a scratched-out photograph, a hymn with a secret, a room in an old church sealed for forty years. Every case is real, with clues to catch and red herrings to dodge, and every answer points to something worth more than any treasure. Told in the King James tradition and unashamed of what this family believes, but built first as a story you won't want to pause — six cousins who bicker, wonder, doubt, and work it out together. From Paths to Glory Publishing, sister series to The Jones Family Chronicles. Hosted and narrated by Robert Johnson. New episode every week. There is a remnant according to the election of grace. (Romans 11:5, KJV)

Determined to give Sonny Sharpe his face back, they take the picture to Brent and Jenna's father, who can sharpen almost anything, and learn the hardest truth of the hunt: some things a man destroys are gone for good. But Papa Harry left a mark of his own on the back of that photo, and it leads them to the water, and to the next page of a story someone spent a lifetime trying to drown.
