When Noe Garcia accepted the job as lead pastor of North Phoenix Baptist Church (NPHX) — a church in desperate need of revitalization — the only other non-Anglo person on staff was the janitor. “It wasn’t the church I had always dreamed about, and in the same token, I wasn’t the pastor they’d always dreamed about,” Garcia explained. In this episode, Dhati Lewis interviews Noe Garcia about his experience with depression, ethnic identity and the immense freedom that accompanied it all while revitalizing NPHX.
