In this episode of Dear Church, Chris McCurley is joined by Chandler Henderson and Chad Thies for a conversation about the unique challenges and blessings of rural ministry. Without formal ministry education or traditional training, both men have stepped into leadership roles simply because they saw a need — and answered God's call.
Chandler and Chad share how everyday Christians can make a powerful impact in small congregations, what ministry looks like in rural communities, and how God equips ordinary people to do extraordinary work. Their story is one of courage, faithfulness, and a deep commitment to growing the church in places often overlooked.
Whether you're part of a small congregation or simply seeking encouragement to serve where you are, this episode will inspire you to say "yes" when God calls.
