Listen "Faithfulness Over Fame: Pastor Evan McClanahan on Bonhoeffer, Ministry Success, and the Courage to Stand Alone (Part 2)"
Episode Synopsis
What does it mean to be faithful in ministry today—and what does success even look like anymore?In Part 2 of our conversation with Pastor Evan McClanahan, we explore Bonhoeffer’s legacy as a “traveling companion” in the work of ministry, the slow death of cultural prestige for pastors, and the ongoing need for deep formation in a post-Christian world. We talk about long calls, evangelical pragmatism, natural law, divine command, and the pressures that shape (or distort) today’s pastoral imagination.
