A Pastor and a Counselor: How We Got Here

Episode notes

We usually sit down with someone else and ask the questions. This time we turned the mic around.

This is the episode where we slow down, no guest, no headlines, and talk about our own lives: Florida roots, the churches and schools that shaped us, how we met at Crown College, what it looked like to say yes to ministry, and what God has done in the years since.

It’s personal. Some of it is hard. A lot of it is grateful. If you’ve ever wondered who’s behind Cultural Connections, or you’re wrestling with whether God really has a purpose for your life, we made this one for you.

God has a purpose for you. We mean that. Find it and live it.
