About this listen

 The Healthy Church Podcast is an honest conversation about what it means to be a part of a healthy church. There are no perfect churches - because they’re all filled with imperfect people led by imperfect leaders. But by God’s grace we can begin to dialogue about what changes can be made in our lives as leaders, and in the churches we serve, in order to better Love God and His people.

    Guest Rick Mills - HCP 266

    Pastor Rick Mills, BMA church planter at Journey of Faith in Elizabeth, Colorado, joins Larry and Heidi to talk about being a bi-vocational pastor and seasons of change as he and his wife care for elderly parents and get ready to move across the country. Rick shares his passion to minister to special needs children and families who’ve experienced trauma and talks about why churches should pay attention to this area of shepherding and care. If you have questions about how to start a special needs ministry or a pulpit opening in the Arkansas area, you can reach Rick at pastorrick70454@gmail.com.
