Gleaning and Gathering

I love meaningful conversations, and this is probably what it would sound like if we had a chance to have that chat in my home office. It is my effort to process what I'm thinking out loud (and sometimes with friends.) I am a Christian, husband, father, pastor, church planter, community developer, author, and social entrepreneur. I am a mortal on a journey through this beautiful, delightful world God has given us, and I live in wide-eyed, child-like wonder. The name? I'm always gleaning life lessons on the farm and beyond, and The Gathering is the congregation with whom I share life.

    Missionary Voices: Interviews from Africa (GNG EPISODE 98)

    While in South Africa, we had the opportunity to interview missionaries Matt Smith and Ben Peters. While my equipment malfunctioned on the interview with Ben and I only captured the first question, I wanted to share it with you. These are great young leaders, and it was a honor to serve with them.

    Humility and Curiosity: Asking Questions and Inviting Feedback (GNG EPISODE 94)

    "Curious people are rarely cynical, and cynical people are very rarely curious." - Carey Nieuwhof While one are you? Are you actively inviting other trusted people to take the "red pen" to your life? Are you interested or interesting? As a leader, humility and curiosity are essential. Are you a leader who is growing in relationship and building trust?

    Becoming A Shalom-Maker: Seeking the Peace of God for a Hurting World (GNG EPISODE 93)

    Sharing from some of my experiences in third-world contexts and statistics from A Hole in Our Gospel by Richard Stearns, I make the case for seeking the Shalom of God for the world in which we live. We cannot dismiss it, and to whom much is given, much is required. May God help us to seek the peace of the places where He has led us.

  8. The Once and Future Church (GNG EPISODE 92)

    The Once and Future Church (GNG EPISODE 92)

    Here are some thoughts on the future of the church and what it will include. While these are trends that I am seeing, I hope that it will provide encouragement to that "Dollar General" pastor who is currently trying to evaluate next steps. Sure, you may be a car mechanic, but God may be calling you to lead a local group of believer as a pastor-shepherd. Don't dismiss that call, and don't quit your job either! May God help us "to serve this present age our calling to fulfill."
