Canadian Pastors Joe Jung, Ben Carbone, and Jaz Ghag Share Their Stories

In this special episode of The Pastorate Podcast, we’re doing something a little different. Rather than one long-form conversation, you'll hear stories from three Canadian lead pastors. Representing the suburbs of BC, the heart of Quebec, and a small coastal town on the Pacific Ocean, these pastors—Joe Jung, Ben Carbone, and Jaz Ghag—open up about calling, family, leadership, and the unique challenges of ministry in their contexts. Each story offers encouragement for pastors navigating their own ministry in a Canadian context.

This episode serves as a reminder that you’re not alone in this work. God is moving across Canada and here is a glimpse into what he is doing. 

In this episode:

• Joe Jung on vocational shift, obedience to God’s call, and pastoring alongside his family
• Ben Carbone on succession, the danger of comparison, and loving the people before the vision
• Jaz Ghag on coming to faith from a Sikh background and the cost of following Jesus
