Your Ministry Resource: Recent Episodes
Micheal & Kari Byrd
A podcast for all ministers with a special focus on Next Generation ministries. We believe the next generation is worth our investment and will encourage you to think that way in your ministry as well!
Technology has an important place in the church. By ignoring it, you hurt yourself and those leading around you. We know it can be hard that's why we are here to help. Ministry is hard, we want to make it easier!
