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.
