Today’s episode addresses a dilemma many churches face in today’s culture of pristinely curated media. “YouTube Envy” is a real thing for many pastors of small (or as we will now call them normal-sized) churches with fewer resources and capabilities to present quality video content.

However, Mark and Charla discuss the superpower that these small and medium-sized churches possess and how they can use it. Our goal as the church is to build relationships to connect people with the saving grace of Jesus Christ. No matter what size church you are, you have the tools to make those connections and build those relationships. Hear some teaching ideas from Mark and Charla and apply them to your ministry.

Blog Post: The Comparison Trap for Churches: Finding Your Church’s Superpower

Who comes to mind when you hear someone describe a person extremely busy in their career and busy in their own discipleship journey? I think of my friend, Matthew Ralston.

Matthew is a committed disciple of Jesus and an active disciple maker, particularly mentoring the faith journeys of young people. Matthew talks about how his career and discipleship pathways are intertwined and focused on the purpose of spreading the Gospel. Oh and he has his own podcast too… Meet my friend Matthew Ralston.

In today’s episode, I have a great conversation with Rev. Andrew Lay, Pastor of Discipleship at Cokesbury UMC in Knoxville, TN. Andrew shares some great insights not only for pastors but also for lay people that are called to serve. He talks about his calling to ministry and the personal commitment he made to that calling. And he gives us insight into how we can be more engaged disciples and better disciple makers.
