    When God Won't Let Go: Pastor Paul Caldwell's Journey to Ministry in Burlington

    In this episode of the Better Together podcast, Wisconsin District Superintendent Andy Albright sits down with Pastor Paul Caldwell of Burlington Church of the Nazarene to talk about his remarkable journey from tool and die maker to full-time pastor. Paul shares how God pursued him for 14 years while he ran from the call to preach — and how God blessed him every step of the way, even in his resistance. They discuss the power of prayer in the local church, Paul's vision for reaching the homeless community in Burlington, and the creative ways his congregation is opening its doors through community garage sales and everyday outreach. The conversation also explores what it means to be the Church of the Nazarene, the challenges older church buildings face with insurance and maintenance, and how the district property board is coming alongside churches to plan for the future. Paul closes with a personal prayer request for his family and his church's evangelism efforts.
