How does a person who was raised on dairy farm in a Mennonite family end up facilitating 24/7 prayer on the National Mall in Washington, DC, for over eight years continuously? Listen to Tanner Peake’s fascinating conversation with Jason Hershey to find out! Jason shares his story, his passion, and his work on this episode of the Redeeming Missions podcast. He asks the compelling question: “When a nation is at its best, what are they doing?” and shares how this shaped the ministry he leads today. This is a refreshing conversation about lifting up the name of Jesus in the realm of politics and leadership, even amid a fraught election season.
