The modern church world is more fragmented than ever. Independent churches value autonomy and conviction—but many pastors quietly carry the weight of ministry alone, without trusted relationships or shared counsel. In this episode of Advancing the Cause, Richard Bargas reflects on why ministry was never meant to be a solo endeavor and why associations like IFCA continue to matter in fractured times. Drawing from Scripture, history, and years of pastoral experience, the conversation explores the value of doctrinally grounded fellowship, trusted brotherhood, and cooperative ministry without compromise. This episode speaks directly to pastors and church leaders who desire faithfulness, endurance, and meaningful partnership—without surrendering independence or conviction.
