Expectations vs. Reality for New Pastors | Kevin Moore

09/19/17 • 27 min

Theological education teaches you "how" to study the Bible in-depth, but many pastors are asking a different question: "When?!" Travis called up Kevin Moore (@kevmoore_) to talk about Bible study expectations vs. reality in a new pastorate. Kevin is the Associate Pastor of Northpoint Christian Church in Spearfish, SD (northpointcc.net), a busy church plant. Travis and Kevin chat about helpful reference resources to launch into study fast and the benefits of studying in order to teach actual people in a local church, rather than merely for a grade.Check out ExegeticalTools.com for more great content, subscribe to the podcast, and follow us on social media @exegeticaltools!
