Pastors Are People Too: Real Talk on Church Hurt, Trust, and Ministry Life

What really happens when people leave a church? How do pastors and their families carry that weight? In this vulnerable episode of Me & My Pod, Ricardo and Christian sit down for a raw and honest conversation about the highs and heartbreaks of ministry life.

This week, we’re talking about:

• The emotional toll of pastoring in silence
• Why “I’m not being fed” often misses the point
• Parenting five kids while navigating church transitions
• Protecting your marriage and your heart in leadership
• How to truly encourage your pastor and their family

We also celebrate 20 years of marriage, share stories from the parenting trenches, and reflect on what trust and calling really mean in ministry.

Whether you're a church member, a leader, or just someone trying to stay faithful in hard seasons, this episode is for you.
