This podcast is an interview with Pastor Stan Rodda. Stan has served the past several years on the staff of a church that has daugthered several churches and helped dozens more launch around the United States. During this engaging interview we dig into the culture of a church that has a passion for reaching disconnected people and raising them up to be disciples who make disciples.

Join in on the conversation with Rich Robinson as he unpacks some ideas surrounding what it means to be one who is known for mobilizing disciples vs attracting attenders and being a part of putting discipleship back into ordinary people, a true priesthood of all believers where everyone gets to play.

Listen in as Beth Ehlert talks with Tom about HGC's plans for 2019. Tom sets goals for more cohorts, coaching, and consultations. He also mentioned publishing a book and possibly a new survey instrument based on the Seven S's of a healthy church! HGC will be serving at least five networks of churches in Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Mississippi, and Washington. Tom and Beth encourage listeners to support HGC as they continue to serve as a change agent to inspire a grassroots movement of churches making disciples and starting new churches and other multiplication projects. We can't do it without this kind of support.

And of course, Exponential 2019 along with HGC's PreConference. Don't miss out on great prices and an excellent PreConference experience.

Beth Ehlert talks with Tom about HGC's year, success on church multiplication initiatives, cohort building, coaching, and consultations. All in all, HGC is excited to be a part of growing the Body of Christ in many different areas. Thanks for continued support as we make plans for 2019.

Listen to this great conversation with Ben about church culture. You'll hear some great nuggets like "surrender is not a consumer message," even if that preaches well, it's hard to live out. One of Ben's key points includes leaving behind the spent ashes, but never leave the fire. Look for the coals, the embers, and carry them forward. Honor the past as you look forward to the future.

This is the second half of Beth’s interview with Tom Planck, Healthy Growing Church’s Chief Catalyst. Tom talks about the privilege of coaching church leaders, as well as some challenges he faces daily.
Beth asks some hard questions about funding and discusses what it costs for a consultation and how churches can reach out and help those others in need. Tom will share some recent success stories from churches he has been able to work with. We’ll wrap up the podcast with some plans for the future, especially Exponential 2019 in Orlando FL, from March 4th through the 7th. HGC gets to host a pre-conference there and this year the theme is Captivating Church Culture. It’s a big topic, a lot of discussion, and we hope you’ll be able to join us. You don’t want to miss it.
