Meet the Council of Presidents: Rev. Michael Lange

We head out to the West Coast for this episode! The Rev. Michael Lange (President, California/Nevada/Hawaii District of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod) joins Andy and Sarah to answer the now infamous Lightning Round of Favorites (which every COP member will be subjected to) and talk about how a Midwestern boy ends up as a pastor in California, Michael's journey to seminary, how an interest in church planting has shaped his goals for the district, interesting things about the CNH District, and why he loves being a pastor in the LCMS. Learn more about the LCMS President and Vice Presidents at lcms.org/about/leadership/president and the 35 LCMS Districts at lcms.org/districts. As you grab your morning coffee (and pastry, let’s be honest), join hosts Andy Bates and Sarah Gulseth as they bring you stories of the intersection of Lutheran life and a secular world. Catch real-life stories of mercy work of the LCMS and partners, updates from missionaries across the ocean, and practical talk about how to live boldly Lutheran.
