160: Memorable Moments and Lessons with BT Irwin

BT Irwin’s podcasting journey began with his father. From 2020 to 2022, BT’s podcast “Minister in the Making,” shared his father’s stories and wisdom from 50 years in ministry. Bobby Ross Jr. and Erik Tryggestad then brought BT in to host The Christian Chronicle Podcast. The 159 episodes BT directed and hosted featured Christians all over the world, including astronauts, authors, professors, ministers, students, journalists, and even Santa Claus. Each guest shared a story about how God is working through a specific ministry or event. Through all of these, BT learned more about how congregations work in their communities and how the church continues to grow. BT, the podcast’s host from 2023-2026, sat down with Wes and Marcus to share some of the most memorable moments from interviews and what lessons he learned about the Churches of Christ through the stories he shared. Heritage21 offers guidance for churches to plan for the future, whether that be to renew, repurpose or replant.

Episode 158: The complicated legacy of Marshall Keeble (Dr. Edward Robinson)

Marshall Keeble (1878 - 1968) may be the most accomplished and influential Church of Christ preacher of all time. For decades, he preached all over the world, baptizing as many as 40,000 and planting hundreds of Church of Christ congregations. Today, hundreds of Church of Christ elders and ministers trace their own Christian ancestry back to Keeble. What makes this story even more remarkable is that Keeble did most of his work in the Jim Crow South, where legal and social norms limited what he could do and say. Sometimes, Keeble preached at the risk of his own life. Marshall Keeble is one of the greatest preachers of all time, but like all great preachers, his legacy is more complicated than it seems at first look. Dr. Edward Robinson, a "spiritual grandson" of Keeble, is author of Show Us How You Do It: Marshall Keeble and the Rise of Black Churches of Christ in the United States 1914 - 1968. In this episode, Robinson explores the harder questions about Keeble's ministry and what the present-day Church of Christ has to learn from one of its all-time greats.

Episode 154: Why church history is bigger than the New Testament (Dyron Daughrity)

Church of Christ folks sometimes have an uneasy relationship with church history outside of the New Testament. In a tradition that esteems the Bible as the singular authority and pattern for the church, it may feel weird or wrong to explore church history from other sources. Dr. Dyron Daughrity is a Church of Christ kid who not only grew up to be a local Church of Christ minister, he became a historian. And not just a historian; Dr. Daughrity recently became the next president of the American Society of Church History. In this episode, Dr. Daughrity argues that the project to restore primitive New Testament Christianity encourages knowing the history of the church in the 2,000 years between Acts of the Apostles and today. He also makes the case for Church of Christ folks exploring their more recent roots in the Stone-Campbell Movement. For fun, he reveals the characters and events in recent Church of Christ history that may not be household names, but are worth knowing and studying.

Episode 156: Artemis II astronaut Victor Glover says you and he are "almost twins"

Many Church of Christ members have preached or testified before thousands at various places and times, but Captain Victor Glover is one of the very few who spoke to an audience of billions. And he is the only one to do it from more than 200,000 miles away from earth. From April 1 - 10, 2026, Glover and three other astronauts completed a 500,000-mile round trip that took them beyond the moon and farther into space than any human beings have ever traveled. NASA's Artemis II mission captivated 8 billion people on earth and gave Glover a stellar pulpit from which to draw humanity's attention to God. In this episode, Capt. Glover opens up about what he felt, learned and thought during his journey beyond the moon. He also shares what being on the moon mission taught him about community, grace, love and what it means to be part of humanity that inhabits earth.

Episode 157: How not to be a ministry burnout (Dr. Darrel Sears)

If surveys are on point, burnout is epidemic among professional and volunteer ministers in congregations everywhere. Not only does burnout end ministries, it damages churches and families as well. It's a major problem that congregations and ministers brush off or put off at their own peril. In this episode, Dr. Darrel Sears (assistant professor of Bible and ministry, York University) defines "burnout," shares his own experience with it in ministry, and talks about how churches and ministers alike can head it off and recover from it. He also introduces Thrive Network, an online small group-based ministry where ministers help each other prevent, and recover from, burnout. Link to Eliza Rohda's Christian Chronicle story on Dr. Sears's Thrive Network Link to Dr. Sears's dissertation (free online) that focuses on the causes and cure for minister burnout (includes many books and other sources for further study) Link to Christina Maslach's research on burnout (referenced in the interview) Link to Resilient Ministry (Burns, Chapman, Guthrie) (referenced in interview) To learn more about how to join a Thrive cohort, contact Dr. Sears here.

Episode 12: Asbury students talk about the Asbury Revival. What really happened?

On February 8, 2023, spontaneous prayer and worship broke out among a few students on the campus of Asbury University in Wilmore, Kentucky. That prayer and worship continued nonstop around the clock for the next two weeks, eventually drawing tens of thousands of people from around the world to what became known as the Asbury Revival. In this episode, we hear from Daniel Silliman, the Christianity Today reporter who covered the event as well as four Asbury students who were part of the revival from start to finish. Also: Students from two Church of Christ universities reflect on what they heard about Asbury and what they hope God does among their own student bodies.

Episode 152: Who belongs in a national Church of Christ directory? (Dr. Suzie Macaluso)

Church of Christ lifers may remember Churches of Christ in the United States, an annual directory of, you guessed it, all Church of Christ congregations in the United States. The last edition came out in 2018. In 2024, The Christian Chronicle, Heritage 21 Foundation, Siburt Institute and 21st Century Christian formed a partnership, the Church Research Council, to resume publication of Churches of Christ in the United States. But making a directory of Church of Christ congregations is not as easy as it may seem. First, there is the challenge of tracking down 10,000 to 12,000 independent congregations across 50 states and territories. Then there's the fact that some congregations will resist participating for a variety of reasons, including how creating a directory feels "denominational" to congregations that avoid anything that resembles that label. And then there's the harder question of all: What is a "Church of Christ" and who gets to decide? In this episode, Dr. Suzie Macaluso, the lead researcher on the Churches of Christ in the United States project, talks about the challenges and implications of the directory on how Church of Christ folks imagine themselves and how they relate to one another.
