Fuel For Pastors
Fuel For Pastors is hosted by Bogdan Kipko. Bogdan is the Senior and Founding Pastor at Forward Church in Irvine, California. Fuel For Pastors is a podcast by a pastor for pastors. In his second letter to a young pastor named Timothy, Apostle Paul says, "And what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also." (2 Timothy 2:2). We believe that when the pastor gets better, everyone gets better. Being a pastor is demanding and exhilarating. Hell is hot, eternity is a long time, quitting is not an option, and souls are waiting to be won for Christ. As iron sharpens iron, this podcast aims for one pastor to sharpen another.

CPL 009: What Is The Church?
On this episode of The Church Planting Life Podcast, I talk about what the church is. But seriously, when was the last time that you actually asked yourself this question and had a nuanced conversation about it. Is church only when we gather together on Sunday or is church when your people are watching the service online in their pajamas? What if tomorrow, social media doesn't exist and the only flock you had left to shepherd was your family. What would you do? How much of your identity is wrapped up in you being a pastor as opposed to being a follower of Jesus? Welcome to the inter-workings of my mind as I wrestle with these questions myself and invite you along to observe the chaos at a safe distance.
