In this episode of Life & Ministry, we sit down with Pastor Jared Staten to discuss his powerful book, Eight Suitcases. More than a story about travel, Eight Suitcases is a journey of calling, obedience, surrender, and the unseen weight we carry when God asks us to step into the unknown.

Pastor Staten shares the heart behind the book, the moments that shaped its message, and how faith is often forged not in comfort—but in transition. Whether you’re navigating change, feeling the tension of calling, or wondering what God is doing in your current season, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to trust Him with every step.

This episode is for leaders, ministers, and anyone who has ever felt caught between where they are and where God is leading them.

Tune in for a transparent conversation about faith, obedience, and the courage to carry only what God has asked you to bring. Please consider sponsoring this podcast!
