[416 Ministries] Building on the Frontier: 25 to 80 Souls in 14 Years

What does it take to grow a small rural church in one of the most remote corners of the country? In this episode of the 4:16 Interview Series, Wade Purdom shares his journey of serving the church of Christ in Boundary County, Idaho. From just 25 members when he and his wife arrived to now averaging around 80, Wade reflects on God’s providence, the unique challenges of “frontier” ministry, and the blessings of raising a family in a community that feels both isolated and yet deeply connected. His story is one of perseverance, prayer, and hope for the church’s future in the Inland Northwest.Wade is a 2007 graduate of the Memphis School of Preaching, has a background working in Apologetics, and spent several years in China teaching English and studying the Bible with those who had an interest.
