Welcome to the very first episode of The Lead Pastor Podcast. In this conversation, Becca turns the tables and interviews me about my own journey into ministry—the burnout that nearly ended it, the redemption God brought through it, and why I care so deeply about encouraging pastors today. We talk honestly about the pressures so many church leaders carry, especially the loneliness that can come with pastoral ministry, and what I've learned about building a healthier, more sustainable way of leading.

My hope is that this conversation reminds you that you don't have to carry ministry alone. We explore what healthy church leadership can look like, why vulnerability matters more than perfection, and how remembering God's faithfulness gives us hope for whatever lies ahead. If you're carrying the weight of ministry, I hope this episode leaves you encouraged and pointed back to Jesus.
