In this episode, we talk with Pastor Travis Houston about developing young ministers without programs or formulas. His approach? Bring them close. Sit with them. Walk with them. From sermon preparation to conversations around the table, this episode explores why proximity—not structure—is often the greatest teacher.

The church was never designed to be preserved—it was desgined to grow. In this conversation, we address the preservation culture that prioritizes comfort over calling and familiarity over fruitfulness. We discuss why new people, new problems, and new demands are not signs of failure, but evidence of life. Growth will cost you comfort—but comfort has never been the mission.

After weeks of heavy conversations, we decided to lighten things up. Joined by Wayne Fortenberry, we share funny church stories, youth camp memories, and moments from ministry that reminder us not to take ourselves to seriously. No agenda--just laughter, friendship, and classic Pulpit Banter.

In this episode we talk about why unity is essential to the Apostolic church. We explore how moving past labels, competition, and comparision allows the church to operate as one body with one mission. Unity isn't about compromising truth-it's about walking together in humility so revival can flow freely.

If we believe the same truth, why are we so divided?

In this episode, we have an honest conversation about factions in the Apostolic movement-organizations, labels, holiness differences, and unspoken divisions that keep us part. We explore how these issues have created barriers to fellowship, weakened our witness, and left the lost caught in the middle.

This isn't about compromising doctrine-it's about putting the Kingdom first. When unity is lost, revival suffers. It's time to stop fighing each other and refocus on what truly unites us.

What happens when the church becomes a product and believers become consumers? In this conversation we unpack the dangers of church shopping, the long-term spiritual cost of constant movement, and why accountability, commitment, and spiritual authority can't thrive without being planted. With honesty and grace, we explore why growth often happens on the other side of discomfort and why being planted matters more than preferences.

In this episode, we pull back the curtain on the pastor's role—exploring the biblical calling, the expectations realistic or otherwise, and the myth of the 'perfect' leader that may be doing more harm than good.

In this first episode we learn about our hosts, their stories, and the "Why" behind the call!
