Welcome to the very first episode of Strength for the Small Church, a small church leadership lifeline.

In this introductory episode, Pastor Kevin Wells shares the heart behind the podcast, the story that inspired it, and the mission that will guide every future episode.

For more than three decades, Kevin has served in a variety of ministry roles and has experienced both the joys and challenges of leading in local churches. Along the way, he discovered that many small church pastors and leaders often feel overlooked, under-resourced, and alone in their ministry journey.

That's why this podcast exists.

Strength for the Small Church is designed to encourage pastors, equip leaders, and strengthen churches through practical leadership insights, biblical encouragement, and real-world ministry strategies that actually work in small church settings.

Whether you serve in a church of 25, 50, 100, or somewhere in between, you'll find encouragement, ideas, and resources to help you move from survival mode to intentional impact.

Thank you for joining us for this first episode. We're glad you're here, and we look forward to growing together in the weeks ahead.
