We head to the Rocky Mountains for today’s conversation! Rev. James Maxwell (President, Rocky Mountain District of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod and serving Rock of Ages Lutheran Church – Colorado Springs, CO) joins Andy and Sarah to answer the now infamous Lightning Round of Favorites (which every COP member will be subjected to) and to talk about his early life and journey to seminary, how his service after seminary influences how he serves today, his duties as a district president and what makes the Rocky Mountain District unique, and why he loves being a pastor in the LCMS today.
