    S. 3 Ep. 1 "The Importance of Pastors"

    In this pilot episode of our Church Members Podcast season 3, we discuss the importance of pastors. It isn't the easiest thing to discuss, especially while serving in the pastorate, however we know that scripturally God has set up the office of a pastor according to his will for our good. We hope this episode helps us to appreciate our pastors and the benefit of having a good pastor.
