Join Chris McNeil on Ministry on the Move as he sits down with Randy Ganzer, longtime pastor of LifeGate Church in Denton, Texas. Randy shares his journey from a 34-year milk route to answering God’s call at age 57, learning how to shepherd a congregation, navigate pride, and experience the transformative power of the Holy Spirit.

From humorous stories about cleaning toilets and surviving deer season to heartfelt reflections on marriage, prayer, and healing, this episode is packed with wisdom, laughter, and practical insights for anyone seeking a deeper walk with God — and maybe a reminder that ministry isn’t about perfection, it’s about love.

In this episode of Ministry on the Move, Chris McNeil sits down with Micah Moore, pastor of Victory Life Church in Boswell, Oklahoma, to explore a journey that spans continents, cultures, and generations.

Micah shares how living in Uganda as a Peace Corps volunteer reshaped his understanding of faith, community, and the spiritual realities often hidden in the U.S. He reflects on what thriving churches look like overseas, the impact of syncretism, and the lessons that American believers can glean from seeing faith lived out in the open.

Back home in Oklahoma, Micah has spent eight years shepherding his congregation, with a particular heart for young married couples and families. He discusses the power of intergenerational mentorship, the importance of passing on biblical truth, and how small acts of community—like monthly life groups for young families—can transform the church culture.

From reflections on spiritual life abroad to practical strategies for nurturing faith at home, this conversation offers insight, encouragement, and a fresh perspective on the church today.

Tune in to hear:

• How a two-year experience in Uganda changed Micah’s approach to ministry

• Lessons from thriving global churches and what they reveal about spiritual reality

• The role of older generations in discipling and supporting younger believers

• Practical ways the church can engage and sustain young families

Whether you’re curious about missions, the state of the church, or fostering authentic faith across generations, this episode is packed with insight and inspiration.

This week on Ministry on the Move, we’re back in Hot Springs Village, Arkansas—America’s largest gated community—and catching up with Pastor Ronnie Gilmore, who’s been on a 13-year mission to breathe new life into First Assembly of God after it had closed its doors. From starting churches from scratch to engaging a community hungry for the Lord, Ronnie shares how he and his wife, Twana, turned what looked like a retirement town into a thriving, multi-generational church.

We talk real ministry: building relationships, loving people where they are, seeing radical life change, and doing whatever it takes—from preaching to plumbing—to get the job done. Ronnie gives insight into keeping a church healthy, walking the line between truth and grace, and staying true to God’s calling for the long haul.

If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to rebuild a church, cultivate real community, or simply follow Jesus without compromise, this episode is for you. And stick around for the speed round at the end—you might be surprised by Ronnie’s picks in music, tech, and books!
