This week on Journey with a Giant, host Lori G. Melton and co-host Robert Prince welcome pastor and nonprofit leader Colin Tuggle for a heartfelt conversation about his transformative experience walking with spiritual giant Eugene Peterson.Through Peterson’s example, Colin found permission to slow down, embrace the long, hidden work of pastoring, and deepen his intimacy with Jesus. Peterson’s legacy—staying faithful in one place, resisting the lure of celebrity, and nurturing a local flock for decades—became a guiding light for Colin, both as a follower of Christ and a pastor.This conversation reminds us that even those who shepherd others need to be shepherded themselves. And that sometimes, the most transformative companionship comes not from the stage, but from the quiet, ordinary faithfulness of those who finish the race well.For more about Colin and his ministry, visit https://www.adkmission.org.📚 Resources Mentioned in This EpisodeA Burning in My Bones: The Authorized Biography of Eugene H.
