On this episode of the MBCBH Podcast, hosts Nate Melton and Jasper Rayns sit down with Heather Gain, the Director of Communications and Outreach at Rooftop Church in Affton, Missouri.
Heather shares her unique journey from working as a crime reporter for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch to transitioning into vocational ministry. She opens up about the heart and personality of Rooftop Church—a community that famously "takes Jesus seriously, but doesn't take themselves seriously" (yes, this includes throwing Easter candy off the church roof!).
The conversation dives deep into what it truly means to be an imperfect family following Jesus by putting love into motion. Heather explains how the church stays connected in a digital world and highlights their hands-on approach to serving through local food pantries, homeless ministries, and their long-standing partnership with Care Portal. Tune in to hear an inspiring real-life story of how stable, gospel-centered community support helped open doors for a family in crisis, and learn how one small "yes" can change everything.
