S3 EP28 featuring Dallas Cogle: Why Relationships Matter

Welcome to the L3 Podcast! We hope this podcast will be helpful to both you and your ministry.

Today, we're joined by a great friend and Next Gen Pastor at Bridgewood Church, Dallas Cogle, to talk about a subject critical to every leader's well-being: why relationships matter. With statistics showing that over 60% of pastors often feel lonely, how do we break the cycle of isolation? Dallas Cogle dives into the vital importance of friendship, explaining that relationships are the very essence of how God created us. Why do so many leaders struggle to build deep, authentic friendships? Pastors Aaron and Dallas discuss the need to "come off the platform"—not just physically, but emotionally—to cultivate private relationships for the health of our own souls. They explore the barriers that keep us from connecting and share practical ways to be intentional about finding friends, getting outside the ministry bubble, and building the support system needed for a lifetime of healthy ministry.
