Tony and Patrick had the distinct pleasure of interviewing their pastor at Calvary Bible Church in Kalamazoo, MI; Pastor Bret Laird.  Pastor Bret discusses why he decided to be a pastor as well as his time serving in Ukraine as a missionary pastor.  Finally, we also talk about the state of the American church and the role of apologetics. Plus, a few book recommendations!
