Especially the Preaching
On Especially the Preaching we meet preachers of God’s Word and through simple, honest interviews, shine a light on their work—their calling, their struggles, their joys. We aim to encourage preachers, those who wish to preach, and those who want to understand the preacher’s life. This is gospel ministry, not in the high places, but in the quiet corners where Christ’s kingdom grows strong.
Especially the Preaching
Zach Byrd
In this episode, Ben sits down with Zach Byrd, a teaching elder in the PCA who pastors two churches in Mississippi. They discuss Zach’s call to ministry, his philosophy of preaching, and the way his pastoral care shapes his pulpit work. Zach shares stories from his unique context, explains his long-term sermon preparation process, and reflects on preaching without notes. The episode is full of practical wisdom, pastoral heart, and plenty of laughter.
