#043: Chad Karger

Counseling, pastoring, parenting, communicating, the many traps of comparison, dealing with stress, daily routines, beauty from ashes, trusting God in our suffering, and more!     Chad is one of two counselors with Porter’s Call. Based in Franklin TN, Porter’s Call is a place where touring artists can find counsel, support, and encouragement, specifically attuned to their unique profession. He is the founder and advisor of Better Days, an organization that provides soul care and counseling for pastors, where they deliberately use the outdoors to bring healing, rest, and a renewed vision for their ministry. He is the author of Go Outside, The Adventure of Knowing and Being Known by God. Chad was the lead pastor of CyFair Christian Church in Houston, TX from 2012 - 2017. He currently blogs at goingoutside.org, where he is currently writing a list of 51 items that he has learned about himself, the world, his observations, regrets, hopes and fears, from turning 50 in recent months. Chad lives in Franklin TN with his wife Meeka and is the grateful father of 3 wonderful children.   The Kent Lapp Podcast Show Links:       Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/vfv2vgw       Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/y8yd2gcc       Overcast: https://tinyurl.com/y8veuoxl       Castbox: https://tinyurl.com/y8vwheqt       Youtube Channel: https://tinyurl.com/vvp3n67       Podcast Trailer: https://youtu.be/TVFsBJlbUJ4       About Kent Lapp: http://kentlapp.com/about/       Subscribe for Email Updates: http://kentlapp.com/the-kent-lapp-podcast/       Follow on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Kentlapp       Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kentlapp/       Email: [email protected]
