On today’s podcast, I sit down with co-pastors Sterling Burleson (the lawyer) and Kaleb Jackson (the rancher) to explore their unique journey into co-vocational ministry. Together, they share how God has led them to serve side-by-side as pastors while continuing in their respective professions. 

At Wesley Biblical Seminary, we’re witnessing a growing movement of co-vocational leaders being called into ministry—men and women who are faithfully serving both the Church and the marketplace. Sterling and Kaleb are a compelling example of this Spirit-led trend.

Our theology is too small. Something big is missing, and the Good News is compromised. God has “an everlasting covenant” with the Earth (Genesis 9:12-17). What would happen if Christian theology took this seriously, literally? And if we looked at Jesus through God’s Earth covenant, and at this covenant through Jesus? This book by today’s podcast guest, Howard Snyder, tackles that question.

The church is ordered so that good can run wild. God appoints leaders to commission the laity in the church’s ministry and mission. Pastors and ministry leaders serve and organize the church in such a way that people in their care can pursue their unique gifts. In Lay Leadership: For the Care of Souls, Aaron Perry empowers pastors to empower laity in leadership. I enjoyed this conversation with Aaron and hope you do to.
