I came to the conclusion that I could not stay in that role and be healthy. So I chose to be a healthy person over a megachurch pastor, and it was an incredibly hard choice. — Pete Briscoe SHOW NOTES In today's conversation, Steve talks with Pete Briscoe about why Pete no longer calls himself an “evangelical.” You'll hear Pete's story, filled with pain and struggles, as he discovers more beautiful ways to live the Christian life. While you may not agree with his path, we think there's something here to learn in his story. Thank you for joining us in today's conversation! ABOUT PETE BRISCOE After leading Bent Tree Bible Fellowship church for nearly three decades and preaching for Telling the Truth ministry for more than a decade, God led Pete to a new season of life. With his wife Libby, they sold their home, donated most of their stuff, and bought an RV. They drove west into the sunset, took a couple of months to catch their breath, and then started to work from the road. Pete now coaches pastors and business owners/leaders in communications and self-care. He is also the host of the podcast Kindavangelical, a podcast for folks who have spent time in the evangelical culture but it isn't working for them anymore.

Today's conversation is with Ken Fifer, the missions pastor at Bent Tree Bible Fellowship in Carrollton, Texas. Bent Tree Bible Fellowship believes in missions and has many different opportunities for their members to engage in. Ken shares how they work to help their members find their fit in missions while honoring the needs of the churches and communities they serve in. Want to learn how your church can partner with OneChild to bring HOPE to kids living in hard Places? Click Here!First, they understand that each member of Bent Tree has a unique gift and calling. It's not about trying to squeeze a member into a program. It's about helping them find the right fit. Second, the churches and communities Bent Tree serves in aren't one size fits all either. Bent Tree works to find ways to support and strengthen the local churches in these countries. And they're OK with stepping away if they don't see a way they can help without hurting. And finally, this approach requires both Ken and Bent Tree and the churches and countries they serve to take time to really let the Holy Spirit do His work. There's no reason to try to force something to happen just to say there's a partnership in place. Learn more about Bent Tree Bible FellowshipLearn more about OneChild HERE!
