Filling the Pipeline: How Churches and Seminaries Raise the Next Generation of Pastors
Manage episode 524275994 series 3578795
In this episode of Advancing the Cause, we explore one of the most urgent issues facing Bible-centered churches today: the shrinking pipeline of men preparing for pastoral ministry. How can faithful churches and trusted seminaries work together to identify, train, and launch the next generation of shepherds?
Joining host Richard Bargas are two leaders deeply invested in this mission: Dr. Corey Marsh of Southern California Seminary and Dr. Tom Pittman of Shepherds Theological Seminary. Both are members of IFCA International and serve on the front lines of theological education.
Together, they discuss the biblical pattern for raising up leaders, the unique roles of both church and seminary, where the process often breaks down, and how intentional partnership can strengthen the future of pastoral ministry. If you are a pastor, elder, seminary student, or church member burdened for the next generation, this conversation will challenge and equip you to take practical steps in your own church.
