What keeps you grounded when the world is pulling you in every direction? In this episode of the Faithful Servants Podcast, we sit down with Pastor John Randall, senior pastor of Calvary Chapel South OC, who has served in ministry for over 30 years. From his roots at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa to planting churches and helping found Calvary Bible Institute, Pastor John has seen God’s hand in raising up leaders for a new generation.

In this episode, Pastor John shares:

• His Calling Story — from janitor to pastor, and why God often calls those who never expected it.
• The Birth of CBI — how a small vision for discipleship turned into a global movement.
• Staying Grounded — why a distracted generation needs the Word of God more than ever.
• Young Adult Ministry — what he’s seeing in Gen Z, and the dangers of half-hearted Christianity.
• Behind the Pulpit — a look at his upcoming book The Other Side of Sunday, where he shares what pastors wish their churches knew.

For young adults hungry for authenticity, or for leaders seeking clarity on how to disciple the next generation, this conversation is full of wisdom, encouragement, and conviction.
