Season 2 of Pastor On Point turns the conversation toward one of the most important, and often overlooked, areas of a pastor’s life. Marriage and family.

In this introductory episode, Ben lays the foundation for The Pastor’s Marriage & Family, The Home Congregation, and explains why faithfulness in ministry must include faithfulness at home. Pastoral ministry brings unique pressures that affect not only the pastor, but also the spouse and children who share life alongside them.

Throughout this season, Pastor On Point will address protecting your marriage, raising children under the pressures of pastoral ministry, navigating expectations placed on a pastor’s spouse, managing family finances, intentionally investing in your marriage, and establishing healthy boundaries with the congregation.

The goal is not to minimize the sacrifices ministry requires, but to have honest conversations about how pastors can faithfully serve the church without continually asking their families to bear the cost.

Pastor On Point is a ministry of Pastors Fellowship and Truth Matters, where real pastors talk about real ministry.

In this episode, Ben sits down with Pastor Andy Hoover of DaySpring Church of God in Cincinnati, Ohio, for an honest conversation about what it means to remain faithful to God's call over a lifetime of ministry.

Andy shares his own journey of sensing God's call as a young man, serving more than two decades as a youth pastor, and eventually stepping into the role of lead pastor at the church where he grew up. Together, Ben and Andy discuss the weight of preaching every week, navigating leadership transitions, the importance of a spouse and family who understand the unique demands of ministry, and why pastors must resist making decisions based on the highs and lows of difficult seasons.

Whether you're just beginning your ministry or have been serving for decades, this episode is a reminder that faithfulness isn't built in a single moment—it is cultivated through years of trusting God, leaning on wise counsel, and remaining steadfast in the calling He has given you

In this episode of Pastor On Point, Ben sits down with Dr. Darrell Allen, pastor of Meade Station First Church of God in Ashland, Kentucky, to discuss one of the most important disciplines in a pastor's life—cultivating a personal walk with God.

Together, they explore the difference between studying Scripture to prepare a sermon and spending time in God's Word to nourish your own soul. They discuss the importance of intentional devotional time, practical habits that have sustained them through years of ministry, and why pastors who neglect their own spiritual health eventually have little left to give others.

Whether it's journaling, prayer, Bible reading plans, or simply learning to slow down and listen, this conversation offers practical encouragement to help pastors guard the most important relationship in their ministry.
