Today I have the honor of speaking with Nick Cady. Nick was a missionary and church planter in Hungary and now pastors a Calvary Chapel in Longmont Colorado, White Fields Community Church. He's also one of the founders of the Expositors Collective and on the leadership team of Calvary Global Network. I love listening to his exegetical, Christ-centered sermons and have learned a lot from his many experiences on the mission field.

If you would like to get in touch with Nick Cady, you can here:

If you would like to get in touch with his church, you can here:

In this episode, we talk a lot about preaching (he and I both LOVE expository preaching), the difference between a "running homily" and exegetical preaching, and how to lead during crisis. Please pray for his church, as they are running the race and making HUGE steps of faith right now.

We also talked a little about my book. If you would like to try public speaking in a second language, you should check it out:

So, Andy Ziesemer is one of those people that just pumps me up every time I talk with him. He's one of the founders of AJesusMission, a missions organization that sent Final Greetings, an awesome rock band, to Ukraine last fall. Andy has a real heart for missions, particularly for caring for those that are out on the field. In this conversation, he shares some of his experiences and recommendations for how to care for folks like us. I love how he and his organization have simplified it into an alliteration: care, connectivity, and consistency. Amen. Thanks, bro, for being willing to come on the podcast with me.
