    As a new pastor, a bi-vocational pastor, and a pastor who who walks through confusion and addiction with others this is time very well spent. It helps me think through the status quo of this thing I call the church world. (It’s a tad different than the business world I co-exist in) Our covenantal pastor group uses this podcast as the foundation of our bi-weekly meetup and it provides for amazing conversation. Thank you for your time and effort!!!

  • What a gift to sit at the table!

    I had the blessing to sit under Dr. Quanstrom as a student at ONU. Now as I do the work and serve as a pastor, what a gift to sit again *with Dr. Q and Pastor Tara Beth around the table. Thankful for a space to think deeply together how to serve faithfully.
