In this episode Aaron chats with pastor Terry Michaels, senior pastor of Calvary Chapel Austin Texas, for a conversation about a wound that's been inflicted on the church in recent times - division. The COVID-19 pandemic brought about challenges that tested the unity of the church, with masks and vaccines becoming sources of division, causing harm to its witness.

But in this episode, we're not here to point fingers or place blame. We're here to explore what it looks like to embrace radical peacemaking, to follow in the footsteps of Jesus and make peace within the church, instead of dividing the body of Christ over secondary issues. We'll delve into the hard questions and offer reflections on how we can move forward and heal the wounds inflicted during these challenging times.

Aaron says “Pastor Terry is a wise and loving soul, a grandfatherly figure whose words are like a warm hug on a cold winter's day. I'm honored to have him on the show, and I can't wait for you to experience his wisdom and love for yourself.” Join us for a conversation that's sure to inspire, challenge, and encourage.
