Everyone loves the idea of starting a church… until the calling gets complicated. 😅
In this episode of When I Heard This, Nate and Pastor Joseph keep it real about what church planting actually looks like — the calling, the chaos, and the cost no one talks about. From emotional exhaustion to unexpected blessings, they unpack how obedience can feel messy, meaningful, and absolutely worth it.
👉 In this episode:
• The fine line between calling and burnout
• What really goes into planting a church (beyond Sunday mornings)
• Why obedience sometimes looks like chaos
• How to stay faithful when the cost feels high
🎧 Listen now and join the conversation that every church planter (or anyone who’s ever said “we should start a church!”) needs to hear.
