For Pastors Episode 01 • Coming Soon •
Solace’s For Pastors is hosted by Vic Francis, who combines his background in journalism with decades of pastoring, national church leadership and practising as a supervisor and spiritual director to champion pastors and their holy calling in an uncertain world.
It’s tough being a pastor. And while we have leaders’ conferences, church growth books and training programmes aplenty, there is little that specifically supports pastors in the grind.
As part of the solution, For Pastors explores issues pastors face and hears from well-known and lesser-known Kiwi pastors for collective wisdom and inspiration.
Vic is passionate about supporting pastors and church leaders, and offers For Pastors to inspire, encourage and help them keep saying yes to the call of God on their lives.
Real talk for real pastors
Episode 01: In Search of Young Pastors
The church is facing a crisis, with many pastors in their 60s close to retirement and only a trickle of new pastors coming through to take their places.
In Episode One, Vic Francis is joined by Alisha Wiseman from Central Vineyard in Auckland and Aaron Hardy from Te Rautini in Hamilton, two youngish pastors who have bucked the trend – committing themselves to pastoral ministry when many of their generation are preferring not to.
