Stetzer, president of LifeWay Research, will host The Exchange live from the Exponential church planting conference in Orlando, Fla., where Warren had been scheduled to lead two Bible studies.

Warren, pastor of Saddleback Church, Lake Forest, Calif., agreed to an interview with Stetzer about what pastors need to know about grief in their congregations, how his son's death has changed him and what church leaders can do to raise awareness and reduce the stigma of mental illness.

Matthew Warren died April 5 at his home in Mission Viejo, Calif. of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Warren has not granted an interview about the incident but has communicated with church members and followers through written statements and his Twitter account.

The Exchange is a free weekly webshow that airs every Tuesday at 3 p.m. Eastern.

Also on this episode, Stetzer will discuss discipleship with best-selling author Francis Chan and Robert Coleman, one of the world's leaders on the subject.
