Summary

Foundations is a podcast about the people who build the church - and what it actually costs them.

Hosted by Spencer Nakamura, Foundations sits down with pastors and Christian leaders to talk about where they started, what they sacrificed, and what it really looks like to give your life to shepherding a church. No highlight reels. No polished answers. Just honest conversation about calling, struggle, and the weight of ministry that most people in the pew never see.


At the center of it all is a growing and largely ignored crisis - the financial and housing pressure crushing pastors in the cities where they serve. Foundations puts a face and a story to that reality, because the church can't care for what it doesn't understand.


Whether you're a pastor in the thick of it, a leader trying to figure out your next step, or a Christian who wants to see the people behind the pulpit as real human beings - this show is for you.
