The Coaching Leader Podcast Scott Gress

In this episode Scott interviews Rev William Wilson "Pastor Bill" who began his career in Agricultural Business and then attended Concordia Seminary in St Louis to become a pastor. He served as a pastor for many years in St Louis and most recently has been serving in the seminary as the director of Resident Field Education. This is where seminary students get hands on practical ministry experience beyond the classroom. Listen in as we discover how Bill develops students for ministry and how he expands the ministry and mission of a congregation.

Rev Dr Dan Prugh serves at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church and School in Tampa Florida. In this second part of our interview he continues to unpack the question, "how do you meet all these people and bring them to baptism?" 
He shares how they work with people to create spaces for them to grow closer to Jesus and not leave it to chance. Dan says that if people are bringing their children to you then they want to hear from you. So they intentionally create space for folks to interact with the faith. Dan also spends time talking about what the congregation does that works so well.
