The Texas Capitol is 14.64 feet taller than the U.S. Capitol because, well, of course it is. And this is one more piece of evidence that (say it with me) everything is bigger in Texas. I recently attended a Pastors’ Day at the Texas statehouse organized by the Church Ambassador Network of Texas, and I was blessed to see all that God is doing in the Lone Star State. In this episode, Bryan English (Executive Director of CAN in Texas) explains his unique call into ministry, explores the challenges and opportunities in Texas, and gives the highlights and lessons from recent ministry successes that can be applied in your city and state.

Bryan English brings a diverse ministry background to his role as Executive Director of the Church Ambassador Network of Texas that includes pastoral ministry, non-profit work, and campaign experience. In addition to serving as a pastor, Bryan was previously on staff with the Iowa Family Policy Center (now the Family Leader,) worked as a Congressional staffer, and has led or worked on local, state, and federal campaigns. Bryan and his wife live in Sugar Land, TX. They are the parents of three adult sons and a daughter-in-law.
