Why Bi-Vocational Ministry? (with Rob Scothern)

Leading a church alongside another salaried job can open opportunities for church planting, smaller church ministry, and more.

In this episode, Adrian Reynolds (Head of National Ministries) is joined by Rob Scothern, pastor at Peak Trinity Church in Bakewell, Derbyshire.

Rob was involved in planting Peak Trinity whilst also working as a teacher in a local primary school. He shares his story and experience of what this bi-vocational ministry enabled him to do, and the challenges it brought.
