Summary


In this episode, Chase Davis and Matt Patrick discuss the concept of Big Eva and the ministry industrial complex. They share their personal experiences and observations of how the evangelical world has changed over the years. They talk about the influence of influential figures and organizations, the pressure to conform, and the lack of willingness to address difficult issues. They also discuss the importance of discernment and critical thinking for everyday Christians and offer advice on how to navigate these challenges. In this conversation, Matt and Chase discuss the challenges faced by pastors in owning their mistakes and responding to criticism. They emphasize the importance of pastors being humble enough to admit when they are wrong and grow from it. They also highlight the need for pastors to be trustworthy and to prioritize discipleship over numerical growth. They encourage listeners to study church history and find good local churches where they can trust their pastors and engage in meaningful relationships.
