In this episode, Ben and John Paul talk about the importance of finding someone to mentor you, hold you accountable, and point you closer to Christ along your journey in ministry.

Show Notes and Quotes:

So often we get stuck in the weeds of ministry that we do not make time for this pastoral role in our lives and that is a very dangerous thing to not make time for.

For pastors to find a pastor, it takes effort and action on our part rather than passivity.
