• CPP #555 – The Challenges of Scattering Disciples
    Jul 22 2024

    You want to plant Christ in your community, but where do you start? Most churches today exist more for themselves than the people around them who don't know Jesus. Whereas Jesus sent his disciples out on mission, we've forgotten how to do that. In this episode Peyton and Pete outline some of the most common challenges, and help you figure out where to start.

  • CPP #552 – Blue Van Dyke on the Science of Communicating
    Jul 1 2024

    Our job as church leaders should be to help people move from being anonymous to known and engaged in our churches. We need to help people move deeper into their discipleship journey. However, that's often a confusing and poorly communicated process. In this episode, Blue Van Dyke and Chestly discuss how more clearly communicate and implement your discipleship journey within your church.

  • CPP #551 – Building a Transformation Process
    Jun 24 2024

    Many people aren't transformed by their involvement with a church because the church does not have a defined transformation process. We expect people to magically become more like Jesus without any intentionality. Chestly and Pete talk about how to build a process that anyone in your church can go through and help lead.

  • CPP #550: On Reaching Lost People, Pt. 3
    Jun 19 2024

    We're back with another Wednesday episode, the next in our Wednesday series on rethinking evangelism and reaching lost people. Today, Mat and Robert discuss the evolving views on religion in the U.S. and the importance of being present in order to join where the Spirit is already moving in the world around you. They explore the shift in American society towards a non-majority religious population, highlighting the continued spiritual hunger and the role of shared experiences that foster a sense of belonging, the power of vulnerability and the value of creating soft spaces for people to care for one another.

    Look out next week for a discussion on how to have gospel conversations with the people of peace in your life!
