In Part One of this two-part interview, Jay sits down with Reece Ward--pastor, academic, friend, and young minister--to talk honestly about what it is to be young in the pastoral and preaching ministry. We talk about our long friendship, our college days, our connections as young men in ministry, and some things we hope we have learned and can teach others. This is us, warts and all! We invite you to pull up a chair and get it on this candid conversation and we trust you will find some encouragement from two guys still learning by God's grace. 

In this episode, Jay thinks through what it is to enjoy the wonder of the Advent season as a minister of the Gospel.

In today's episode, Jay talks about finding the right voice for your personality and gifting as a minister of the Word.

After a long break, we're back with a brand new series titled "Behind the Pulpit." In today's episode, Jay breaks down the content of the series and spends some time discussing the first subject: dealing with duplicity in the ministry. We hope you'll be edified by the shows we share!

Today, Jay is joined by his wife Katie for an honest, humorous, real-life conversation about being married to a minister. Katie is a decade-long veteran of sharing life with a preacher/pastor, a new mom, and a nurse. Join us for a peek into our wild, fun, sometimes uncomfortable life and invite others to have similar conversations. 

In today's episode, Jay tackles the crucial issue of the minister's home, considering the subject in light of Scripture and offering some talking points on how we might better approach honoring God as spouses, parents, and most importantly, Christ-followers. 

Pastor Kevin sits down with us to discuss unexpected turns and changes in ministry life that may surprise us but that ultimately work to God's glory and our good.
