886 | Chai Can't Even | Eldred Spain | Pt. 1

From the time he was two years old, Eldred Spain knew he wanted to be one of “them” ... a minister who helped people. 89 years later, Eldred is still learning and still finding ways to minister to people. In this special episode of Chai Can’t Even, host Blake Smith sits down with Eldred, a lifelong member of the Community of Christ and former employee of the church, to hear his stories. We bet you’re going to be surprised when you hear what Eldred thinks are some of the biggest “changes” in the church.  It’s definitely not the changes so many folks get worked up about. Grab your favorite podcast beverage and settle in for part one... there was too much to put in just one episode.
