Episode 78: God’s Mercy in Ministry Mistakes (with Kent Kloter)

by | Jul 21, 2026

Have you ever made a decision that at the time seemed so right, only to look back with immense regret? Perhaps you have spent sleepless nights replaying a conversation you had with a counselee or member of your flock.

In this conversation, Mike sits down with Kent Kloter, a well-known guest on this podcast and a cherished member of the BCM team, to discuss mistakes they’ve made along the journey of discipleship ministry, and the mercy and grace God has abundantly worked through their shortcomings.

We pray this conversation will be an encouragement to you and that you will taste the sweetness of the gospel again today as the only balm for past mistakes.

Listen in!
