Our hosts sit on opposite sides of the table today as Carl welcomes his guest, the Reverend Todd Pruitt, pastor of Covenant Presbyterian Church in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley. They delve into the evolving challenges faced by pastors over the decades, from social media scrutiny to the changing dynamics of church leadership. 

The ease with which a pastor's reputation can be harmed is now light speed. – Todd Pruitt

Todd shares insights from his extensive experience in ministry, reflecting on the importance of friendships and confidants in navigating pastoral life. 

A life which, where the Lord gives you three, four, five really good friends, is a blessed life indeed. – Carl Trueman

Tune in for a candid conversation that sheds light on the complexities of leading a congregation in today's world.

We are pleased to award three listeners some show swag – a Mortification of Spin poster signed by our very own Carl and Todd. Congratulations to Derrick B. from Aliceville, AL, Brian H. from Vidalia, GA, and Solomon C. from Bridgewater, VA!
