Interview 104: The Second-Career Call

We continue our interviews with authors from our January/February edition of FrontLine on the theme: “It Takes a Church to Grow a Pastor.”This week our guest is Matt Klassen. His article is his own testimony about his call into the ministry after a long career in a field we don’t usually think of as a training ground for ministry. He’ll tell you all about that as he talks about how the Lord brought him to faith in Christ, then grew him in the local church to the point where he realized he could best serve the Lord in the ministry.We hope this conversation is a blessing to you, but even more importantly, maybe for some it might serve as a spark to taking a step into full time ministry in a local church. There is a crying need for more pastors, perhaps someone who is listening should take that step, or you know someone who might well serve in this way. If the latter is the case, send the link to that someone and see what God might do.Before we get to the interview with Matt, let me remind you that his article is available on our substack right away for paying subscribers. We have previews for everyone else. I hope you will join with us and support the ministry of the FBFI by becoming a paying subscriber.Now, for my interview with Matt Klassen.The Contents & Editorial for the January/February FrontLine:It Takes a Church to Grow a Pastor [FrontLine]The Article:The Second-Career Call - the Proclaim & Defend Podcast Get full access to the Proclaim & Defend Podcast at proclaimdefend.substack.com/subscribe
