In this two part series, we have a conversation with Chris Chase.
Part one discusses his early years as a kid in Montreal and his journey to adulthood. We joked about how there are six degrees of separation from David Wells, the General Superintendent of the Pentecostal Assemblies Of Canada; but, it’s just as likely that there are six degree of separation from Chris Chase.
Much of his adult life has revolved around the Greater Toronto Area as a student, pastor, Bible College faculty and family man.
Part two will take us into a deeper discussion on race, theology and urban ministry but this episode tells us his story thus far. When we recorded earlier this year he was between things and has since landed as the lead pastor of The Meeting House in Newmarket.
Catch more of Chris Chase on his YouTube series ‘The House Of Common Show’.
