Ep. 228: Life and Ministry with Robert Briggs
What does life and ministry look like when you serve in one church for 20-years? What joys and sorrows come through a long ministry in the same church? How do you raise up fellow pastors while avoiding cynicism? How should pastors be encouraged to labor faithfully in their own context?
Brian and Jim discuss these things and more with pastor Robert Briggs on this episode of Trench Talk.
