The 95 Podcast: Conversations for Small-Church Pastors

You Are Not the Exception: When Pastors Fall - Episode 56
This last week was heavy, not only with political division, but also with news of another leader falling morally. (Not to mention the reminder of countless church leaders falling that we don't hear about in the news.) And I felt frustrated. I felt frustrated by how I saw other pastors responding. I felt frustrated by how consistent these mistakes happen. And I felt frustrated by the witness that is hindered each time events like this take place (for the whole Church, not just their church).
Austin and I had another podcast scheduled to release today, but after talking on Monday, we knew we needed to record a fresh conversation this week addressing what we're seeing.
So today, here's about as honest of a conversation as you could get on the podcast, and some crucial reminders about how none of us are the exception. You'll hear many of the lessons I've learned in my 40 years of ministry, some openness about Austin's lifelong struggle with pornography and what led to his dad's affair, and a path forward for every single one of us. I hope you'll take the time to really listen to this conversation.
