Love God and love people: Stories from a small town pastor
This week on Unpacked Evan and Tara chat about Evan's life and story as a pastor. Evan is leaving his role as the Lead Pastor at Lake Ridge Community Church in Chestermere and stepping away from Pastoral Ministry after 28 years. Tara and Evan chat about the importance of stories and the transformation that takes place by sharing the stories that change us. The Unpacked Team discusses the vulnerability of starting something new and the indicators to take care of yourself so you can better care for others. We talk about the foundation of loving God and people as the foundation of Evan's life as a pastor. And we share stories of joy, humour, challenge, sadness and of loving the neighbourhood and city well. Evan and Tara chat about each story, share the lessons and hope you can reflect on your own life as you listen.
