TFNaz Podcast Andy Albright and James Hardy

In this bonus episode of the TFNaz Podcast, Andy and James walk through the process by which Pastor Andy was elected as the next District Superintendent for the Wisconsin District in the Church of the Nazarene. They also chat a little bit about what a District Superintendent does and they briefly outline the process that Twin Falls Church of the Nazarene will go through in selecting the next Lead Pastor.

This is also the final episode in which Andy will be a cohost for the TFNaz Podcast. I (James) am so thankful that we had the opportunity to do this podcast over the last year. It's been a great joy to have these fun and formative conversations with my friend, Andy. I am tentatively planning for the podcast to continue into the future - though the form the podcast will take and the frequency of the episodes are to be determined. That said, my hope is to start recording and producing Season 2 of the TFNaz Podcast in September 2023. 

In this bonus episode, Andy and James sit down with Eric Ness & Cade Sanford to discuss their recent mission trip to Guatemala. Eric & Cade recap their experience, recall some highlights - including some wonderful moments of God's Spirit at work in their lives - and they share why they believe mission trips are beneficial for anyone to take part in. 

In the final episode before the summer break, the TFNaz Podcast welcomes Rachel Berry, our church's new Children's Director, onto the show! Rachel shares a bit about herself, plus Andy, James, and Rachel share boring parts of their lives. Then, the three of them discuss the significance of Pentecost. Finally, they share some things that are happening this summer so that listeners can be informed about what's going on and can know ways in which they can pray for the church and its leaders.

In this episode, the crew refers to Acts 2.

In this episode, Andy and James start the episode by describing their dream homes. That segment segues into a discussion rooted in 1 Peter 2:2-10, our passage from the previous Sunday.
