Most LCMS circuits struggle with collaboration—but not Pastor Joshua Reber’s. In this success story, Josh shares how his circuit has built healthy rhythms, a thriving newsletter, men’s retreats, and real theological dialogue that bring pastors and congregations closer together.

In this episode, Tim and Jack sit down with Josh to explore:

- What makes circuit collaboration thrive.
- Why pastoral wellness matters for the whole church.
- The surprising power of Sabbath rest and holistic health.
- How preaching and sermon evaluation can sharpen pastors.
- Why faithfulness, not results, is the ultimate goal.

This conversation is both honest about the challenges and hopeful about what’s possible when circuits work together in the LCMS.
