Episode 002 - An encounter with Jesus inside a Roman prison.

We jump right into the deep end this week as we give you an inside look at what happens when pastors feel like quitting. We discuss our experience in an obscure prison in Rome that floored us both. Standing in the place where Paul “finished” his race for Jesus left us with big questions about true success in the Kingdom of God. The answers couldn’t have been more surprising.  Come along as we marvel at the beauty of reaching the end of ourselves and discovering a path straight to the heart of Jesus.

About the Podcast

Unfinished People
Exploring the mystery and wonder of following Jesus as unfinished people.

Welcome to the Unfinished People podcast. I'm Chad Ellenburg and my co-host is Brandon Zieske. We are both pastors who love and follow Jesus. And we are both very aware of how unfinished we are.

Each week, we will talk about the struggle and the beauty of living and breathing in these unfinished vessels. The apostle Paul describes this as carrying around the Treasure of Jesus in mere "jars of clay." Don't we know it.

At the coronation of Jesus on the cross, when he punched death in the mouth, he said "it is finished." So why doesn't it feel like it?

If you connect with that sentiment, come have a listen. Thanks.
