Biography Mark is the senior leader of Red Church in Melbourne, Australia. He is passionate about spiritual renewal and the future of the church.

    A question many of us face this time of year is how to guide our congregations well through the Advent season. In the midst of pastoring others, some of us have been able to enter into the wonder of the season ourselves, some of us are navigating the busyness of planning and executing events and services, and others of us are walking through a deeply painful season that can come with this time of year.

From preaching and shepherding to being organizational leaders, cultural commentators, and trauma-informed counselors, the demands can stack up, making the work feel impossible.

Our conversation with Glenn Packiam covers: The impossible expectations placed on pastors today and how to navigate them with grace.
