In Episode 26 of "Pastor’s Café Q&A," hosts David Hanan, Ph.D., and Pastor Steven Kern explore how the choices we make in church—especially regarding worship music—can impact outreach and unity.

Handling Disagreements in the Church: Whether it's about music, theology, or leadership, how can the church address disagreements in a way that fosters growth and reconciliation rather than division? What biblical principles can guide us in resolving conflicts?
Creating a Welcoming Church: How can the church become more aware of the ways we might unintentionally create stumbling blocks for new believers or outsiders? What practical steps can we take to ensure our church is focused on God’s mission rather than internal disputes?
Join us as we tackle these tough questions and explore how churches can navigate these challenges while staying true to their mission of love, unity, and outreach.
