As a church planter/pastors wife, I find this podcast so encouraging, instructive and challenging. I’ve shared it with all of our elders, deacons and anyone I think will listen. It’s also helped me as I lead women’s ministry at our church.

Applies the Bible and theology in a practical way for the life of the church. You won’t regret 30 minutes spent with these 2 brothers in Christ.

Really love the wisdom and insight of this podcast. This is a must listen for pastors and one that is a priority listen for me. Love the dynamic of the two brothers on here. Pure gold!
