In this episode of the DoorWays Ministry Network podcast, host Ric Shields interviews Dr. Daniel Isgrigg, a Pentecostal historian and associate professor at Oral Roberts University. They discuss Isgrigg's book, "The Average Pastor", which encourages pastors of smaller churches. Isgrigg shares his journey from being a children's pastor to leading a church, and the challenges he faced in managing a smaller congregation with limited resources. He emphasizes that the average church size in America is under 100 people, and that these congregations are just as valuable and deserving of dedicated pastoral care as larger ones. Isgrigg encourages pastors to embrace their congregations as they are, rather than focusing on growth or comparing themselves to larger churches.
