God Of The Gray Area (w/ Trevor Williams) – Episode 199
Life can change in an instant. When it does, it’s so important to have community and honest relationships to help you work through it.
Space Together (w/ Justin Knapp) – Episode 198
Looking at the horizon for churches in the coming decades requires us to discover new avenues of financial resources and stability. Sadly, many churches will wait until it’s too later or they are in a pressure filled situation to research new possibilities.
The Healing Church (w/ Sam Black) – Episode 197
Addressing this issue head on will most likely allow your ministry to have a huge impact in your community. There are very few avenues for people to pursue to find healing and wholeness.
Don’t Burn Out – Burn Bright (w/ Jason Young) – Episode 196
It’s much better for a leader to approach ministry health from a “proactive/preventative” posture than to deal with the consequences of a “reactive/rebuilding” results.
My Church Law Firm (w/ Steven Goodspeed & Dustin Gaines) – Episode 195
One of the most important things every church can do is to do a legal audit of their preparedness concerning the many shifting issues facing the church.
Water For Good (w/ Weston Williams) – Episode 194
Jesus modeled for us how important it is to meet people’s needs before you attempt to share the Gospel with them. Providing something as life sustaining as clean water can open even the most cynical person to investigate the message of God’s love shown to us through Jesus.
How To Preach To The Unchurched (w/ Justin Trapp & Wade Bearden) – Episode 193
Justin & Wade’s passion for effective communication shines through as they talk about the current state of the church and what must be done to reach those in our communities who are far from God.
Discipleship In The Home (w/ Matt Friedeman & Darrell Stetler) – Episode 192
You only get one shot at discipling your children. It’s important to begin now even if you’ve never had an intentional discipleship focus with defined outcomes and goals.
Rural Advancement (w/ Joe Epley) – Episode 191
Ministry in the coming decade is going to require a renewed authenticity in how we provide ministry. The shift has already begun to move from “observing” a service each week to “participating” in it.
The Church Revitalization Center (w/ Michael Rubino) – Episode 190
Michael’s love of the local church comes from this philosophy: “Jesus SAVED me. But He used the local church to SHAPE me.” What He did through His Bride, the local church, changed my whole life!
Leading Through Changing Times (w/ Kaitlyn Wood) – Episode 189
This is great conversation on the challenges facing women who choose to answer the call to serve the local church in today’s climate.
