    S9 E 7 | Dan Pelletier
    Nov 19 2024
    Ministry often includes the unexpected, as Pastor Dan Pelletier recounts in this episode of On Mission podcast. Having served from the East Coast of the United States to a tiny island in Micronesia, Dan’s heart is entrenched in youth and Christian camp ministries. However, when a conference center he directed closed, the Lord provided lodging in the steeple of Hamilton Square Baptist Church in the heart of San Francisco. Then, through a series of events, the steeple became home, and Dan became the pastor. “It was never my plan,” he adamantly states in recounting how God’s plan unfolded. When asked his mission, he initially focused on youth ministry and readily responded, “Touching the future.” Now the scheme is broader. It is “touching the future” through the church, made up of affluent members as well as the homeless encamped around them, and of multi-ethnic people of all ages in the Bay area. “Touching the future,” as host Dr. Matt Davis summarizes, “with truth from the past.”

    S9 Ep 6 | Jon Bladine
    Oct 29 2024
    Dr. Matt Davis welcomes Jon Bladine, Director of Longview Camp in Arcade, New York, as his guest on this episode of On Mission. Jon discusses how the Lord guided him to camp ministry, the skills that have been beneficial, and those he had to acquire, as well as the challenge of revitalizing a struggling ministry. Out of college, Jon had plans to be a missionary pilot; his journey may resonate with those who have undergone training for a specific purpose only to be guided in a different direction by God. Dr. Davis and Jon swap memories of Northland in Dunbar, WI, where Jon grew up, and of various camp ministries Jon has been a part of. You will be encouraged by Jon’s passion and testimony of God’s hand in their lives through the camp ministry, and admonished to never second guess what God has done in a place where little fruit is visible. Ministry’s value is eternal because it is about people.

    Join Dr. Matt Davis as he talks with retired chaplain Lt. Col. Scott Nupson on this episode of On Mission. Mr. Nupson represents the Associated Gospel Churches Chaplaincy, a tool of the local church to endorse and send chaplains into limited access institutions (all branches of the military, Civil Air Patrol, Veterans Affairs, police, fire, federal prisons) in order to share the good news of Jesus Christ. Besides his career as a chaplain, he has been a pastor, husband of 35 years, and father of four, all whom serve faithfully in their local churches all over the world. Dr. Davis and Mr. Nupson provide context on chaplains in the American military, discussing their history and the spiritual needs of military personnel. They also address the legitimacy of the chaplain’s role and Mr. Nupson’s deployment experience and lessons learned. You will be encouraged by his faithful testimony of God’s grace, and learn how to encourage and support the work of chaplains in our military.
