This is the pilot episode of our new podcast. Our mission is to encourage and equip the church - give it a listen and let us know what you think!

To Encourage and Equip the Local Church
“Holy Roast” is a new podcast sponsored by the Ministerial Services Operational Team. Co-Hosts Rachel Wallace (MSOT Member & Lead Pastor at Revolution UMC) and Rob Tucker (MSOT Member & Lead Pastor at Watkins UMC) will serve up a piping hot blend of wisdom, insight, and inspiration for pastors and church leaders.
Twice a month, Rachel and Rob will engage in heartfelt discussions, offer practical advice, and share real-life stories from their own journeys in ministry. They will also be interviewing pastors, church leaders, and experts in the field both within/outside of the Kentucky Conference to provide fresh insights and guidance to their listeners. It’s the encouragement we all need on a Monday morning to keep going. "Holy Roast" will leave you feeling inspired, rejuvenated, and equipped to lead your congregation with faith, grace, and a little humor.
So grab your favorite brew, pull up a chair, and join Pastors Rachel and Rob for a spirited conversation that's both deeply theological and downright down-to-earth. It's time for some "Holy Roast!"
