In this podcast, we talk with Erie, PA lead pastor, Nichole Schreiber, about change. We talk about things that seem simple to us yet are not. You must hear her story of removing a couple of pews in an 80s-style church. Wow! Did that hit the fan! A pastor needs to factor in God’s will in making change, possibly doing changes in seasons, and then really identifying what the desired end result should be. Kudos to Pastor Nichole for a great podcast!

In today’s podcast, we speak with denominational leader, Darryl Wootton on the great topic of Sermon Preparation. In the pastorate, we all know Sundays keep coming at us. Darryl talks very openly about the system he used over the years to bring order and structure to his sermon prep time. His family knows it, and his team knows it. In all cases, everything else around his time in leading the church takes a back seat to being ready to step into the pulpit on Sunday morning.

In today’s episode, we talk with Pastor John Dougherty as he gives guidance to 190 churches, their pastors, and constituencies in Georgia. He encourages pastors to be open to how the Lord might be working on the heart of a volunteer to think of going into ministry. We can facilitate that when we build farm teams of leading volunteers who could begin to be considered to fill ministry positions in the church as those might materialize.

He discusses a crisis need among pastors and that is their isolation from others, including other pastors. Pastor Gene uses the phrase that “too many pastors are locking the door from the inside” when they most desperately need others to help them live whole and healthy ministry lives.
