    Who really is a disciple? -Missional Leadership Podcast Sample

    Who really is a disciple? -Missional Leadership Podcast Sample

    There are so many words commonly used in parish renewal that can be ambiguous...or just plain mysterious. 'Disciple' is one of these words, because its a name given to a devoted follower of Jesus. Which sounds clear enough but what does that mean to the people in the pews? Does it mean "I believe" or "I'm on the journey" or "I serve in ministry" or something else. Join the Missional Leadership podcast as we explore what it means to be a disciple and how to gain clarity for your faith community.

    Enjoy!

    How do you lead yourself? -Missional Leadership Podcast Sample

    How do you lead yourself? -Missional Leadership Podcast Sample

    Leading a parish on the journey of renewal is one of the most exciting things a priest or lay leader can do in ministry...
    but it can be tough.
    People will complain, leave, and get pretty negative over the inevitable changes that your parish will go though as it refocuses on mission, bring new people into a relationship with Jesus.
    While there are a number of ways that you'll be able to navigate these issues, like all change, the first person to take the next step will be you. So lets get prepared to dive into the world of self-leadership because God don't want us to just survive the journey, he wants us to thrive!
    Enjoy!

Robert McGregor ,

thank you

Love starting my Tues and my week listening to these podcasts with my coffee. Always informative and thought provoking, and inspiring. No matter how bad your day starts, hearing and visualizing the back and forth with each of you makes you forget all that and smile. Thank you

Father Andrew ,

Motivation and direction

Thank you for this podcast. I have read the book and took in DR16, so I find this podcast helps me to keep motivated and directed as I try to apply these principles to my parishioners.

Leadership teams, Alpha, and culture change are the three important aspects of the direction that my parishes are taking.

Inspirational Series

Very nicely done podcasts! As an older person in ministry at Saint Benedict Parish, I feel like I want to live a long long time just to take part in this challenging and ever-joyful journey of church renovation!
