Pastor Garrette Milliken was one of my closest “church friends” back in my time at Mosaic. Him and his sweet wife, Leslie, are huge inspirations to me as a parent, a spouse, and a minister. Garrette and I served in Next Gen ministries and worked together for a little bit until he moved on to his current role as the senior pastor of Compassion Church in Waverly, TN.

As you listen to this episode, you’ll agree: I couldn’t be more proud of their family as they navigate moving when God says to move (spiritually and literally move homes!), grieving their losses while also celebrating wins, and ministering above and beyond what’s expected of them at their church, all while being some of the best parents to their three sweet kiddos! If you haven’t yet, go listen to Leslie’s homeschooling episode after you listen to this one all about Garrette, his family, and his walk with God through different ministries.

Garrette’s Verse of the Week: Romans 5:8, “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”
