In Episode 104, we continue with the second part of a three-part mini-series to talk about my journey on how I entered the ministry and how I became a pastor. Was it God's plan for me to be a pastor? Almost every Christian has faced this dilemma at some time in their walk with Christ. 

In the end, it's a wonder and a blessing when God gives someone an inclination towards pastoral leadership gifts to serve in a certain church and provides a path to lead and serve in that church. That’s when I knew I was called.

Tune in now and let’s go bigger, better, and deeper!
