Ministry Isn’t a Competition | Afterthoughts Podcast - Ep. 130

Faithfulness matters more than platform, performance, or success. In this episode, Pastor Brad Thomas from Austin Ridge shares his story of coming to faith, building a healthy church culture, and staying grounded in ministry over the long haul. The conversation explores calling, burnout, devotional life, and what it means to keep loving Jesus while serving others. | SUBSCRIBE: @redrocksaustin Need PRAYER? https://my.redrocksaustin.com/prayer Are you ready to say YES to Jesus? https://redrockschurch.com/yes SUPPORT our mission: https://www.redrockschurch.com/give SHARE your story: my.redrockschurch.com/shareyourstory We are so glad you are joining us!
