An Elder’s Perspective on Ministry in New Orleans | Wes Arabie Interview

In this episode of the 416 Interview Series, Wayne Rodgers sits down with Wes Arabie, an elder at the DeGaulle Drive Church of Christ (New Orleans, Louisiana). Wes shares his journey from the New Orleans area to preaching school, his years preaching in Mississippi, and how the congregation at DeGaulle Drive endured major hardships—especially Hurricane Katrina and COVID—while continuing to support gospel work. If you’re a preacher, elder, or Christian seeking encouragement, this conversation highlights what keeps God’s people pressing forward: the Lord, His Word, and faithful service.
