In this edition of the Ministry Minded Podcast, I am thrilled to be joined by Cole Russell Deike to talk about the mental toughness and preparedness necessary for pastoral ministry as well as why the gospel of grace is uniquely primed for quarantine seasons.

Cole is the happy husband to Chloe and father to Russell. He lives and ministers in Des Moines, Iowa, where he pastors Frontier Church. You can find him on Twitter and on Instagram.
