In this powerful episode of the Engage Church Network Podcast, Mike Glenn sits down with Ben Anderson, the Senior Pastor at Christ Church Nashville, to talk about the unique calling of leading in the very place you were raised.
Ben shares what it’s like to return to his home church—not just as a member, but now as the shepherd. From the weight of being fully known to the beauty of generational trust, this conversation explores the tension, grace, and growth that come with pastoring in your hometown.
They also dive into:
✅ How the church often affirms a calling before we see it ourselves
✅ The evolving expectations of ministry in a post-COVID world
✅ Leading with wisdom, humility, and vision in a city that never stops changing
Whether you're a pastor, a leader, or someone discerning your next step in ministry—this episode is full of encouragement and insight.
