036 - Walking Through Pain & Burdens

Part of Season 4! In this episode, we interview Dr. Neal Windham to talk about life together in community and the realities of learning to walk together through difficulties. How should Christians understand pain? More importantly, how do learn to shoulder what others are going through? We answer these questions in this episode. Dr. Windham is a retired professor/pastor living in the Midwest whose focus, particularly in the later stages of his career, has been on spiritual formation. He's also taught Greek language and New Testament, both in the states and abroad, and has served many churches in an interim capacity along the way. His principal ministry interests today are teaching in the local church and practicing spiritual direction with pastors and other church leaders who want to deepen their walk with God. He spends his days alongside his wife, Miriam, reading, making music, studying, practicing spiritual direction, fishing, and visiting their (grand)kids in Knoxville and Joliet.
