About this listen

In this latest episode, "friend of the show" Brenda Schmelling fills in for Shane as Pastor Dan is joined by Dave and Laurie Gallagher for an insightful discussion on the Specific Ministry Program (SMP) in the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod.

Dave has not only been accepted into this rigorous program but will soon officially serve as the SMP pastor for St. Luke's Lutheran Church in Federal Way. Together, we explore what the SMP program is, who it's for, and how it equips individuals for ministry in specific contexts.

Whether you’re part of a congregation, considering ministry yourself, or simply curious about how pastoral training works within the LCMS, this episode is packed with valuable insights. Join us as we celebrate this exciting new chapter for Dave and learn more about the path to pastoral ministry through SMP!

Don't forget to continue the conversation at home, in the car, at work, or anywhere you can find someone to talk to! Thanks for walking with us!
