What Pastors Really Want from Missionaries: Interview with Pastors Brent and Brad Part 1

What do pastors actually wish missionaries knew before reaching out?In this episode, Jenn Fortner and Josh Sears flip the script and invite two pastors — Pastor Brad McAtee from Peace Chapel and Pastor Brent Hurt from Brighton Assembly – to share what it's really like on the receiving end of missionary outreach.They walk through what pastors want to hear in that first phone call, why a face-to-face coffee meeting is almost always the preferred first step, and how passion and genuine connection matter far more than polished packets or a rehearsed speech.You'll also hear practical advice for navigating unique situations — like long-distance connections and how to be ready for every church's different process.
