What actually counts as Christian leadership… and why does it fall apart so often inside the church?
In this episode, Nate and Pastor Joseph dig into the truth about leadership in the church and why so many believers end up confused, hurt, or just straight-up annoyed by how authority works in different Christian spaces. They break down what healthy spiritual leadership looks like, how influence can be used well or misused fast, and why accountability matters way more than titles or stage presence. It’s honest, funny, and a little uncomfortable in the best way possible, especially if you’ve ever wondered why leadership feels so different from church to church.
If you like real talk about faith, culture, and the messy parts of church life, you’re in the right place.

Episode 147 - Missionaries: Passport, Purpose, and a Prayer
They’ve got the luggage, the calling, and… a selfie stick. In this first of two episodes on Christian missionaries, Nate and Pastor Joseph dig into the passion, pitfalls, and awkward realities of bringing the Gospel across borders. From inspiring sacrifice to culture shock, they talk about what’s beautiful, what’s complicated, and what’s just plain weird in the world of missions.
No guilt trips here—just a thought-provoking, laugh-out-loud conversation about faith, culture, and what happens when calling meets context.
🎙 Hosted by Nate & Pastor Joseph – two friends who mix humor, sarcasm, and honest dialogue to unpack big questions about church, faith, and culture in America.
