In this episode of the MakeReady Podcast, we sit down with Jeff Parker—a seasoned ministry leader who has spent over 20 years inside the megachurch world—to talk about what happens when alignment fades, community fractures, and church no longer feels like home.
After decades in a thriving megachurch, Jeff found himself disoriented, asking hard questions about leadership, calling, and the quiet drift from God’s heart. What followed wasn’t deconstruction—it was a deeper return to Jesus. From wrestling with church hurt to rediscovering ancient practices, Jeff shares his honest journey of listening, grieving, and rebuilding.
If you’ve ever felt let down by the institution, confused by the culture, or hungry for something more than Sunday performance, this conversation invites you to consider: what if the breaking is the beginning of something better?
