What Keeps People Coming to Church: A Conversation with Pastor Gary Sandberg

It’s our 400th episode (!!) and what better way to mark the moment than someone who’s been here since the beginning?
Pastor Gary Sandberg joins Pastor Nate for a wide-ranging, honest, and grounded conversation about what keeps them both rooted in the church, even in a culture where walking away feels easier.
They cover everything from Sunday sports and spiritual burnout to the sacred power of liturgy and the importance of generosity. And, of course, a reminder that it’s okay to show up to worship tired, questioning, or unsure. God still shows up. And that’s enough.
