    169| How Rebuilt Speakers Helped St. Hilary Take the Next Step

    What does it actually look like to invite a Rebuilt Parish speaker into your parish? In this episode of The Rebuilt Parish Podcast, Melissa Wilkinson talks with Fr. Roger Gustafson, pastor of St. Hilary Parish in Tiburon, California, about his experience bringing multiple Rebuilt speakers to his parish over time. Fr. Roger shares how these speaking events helped strengthen parish vision, encourage parishioners, and support the work of parish renewal at St. Hilary. A major focus of the conversation is Tom Corcoran’s Rebuilt Faith mission and the way it helped parishioners better understand discipleship, not as an abstract idea, but as a practical invitation to follow Jesus more intentionally. Through clear teaching, real parish experience, and a framework that emerged through the conversation, Fr. Roger reflects on how outside voices can help reinforce the mission pastors are already trying to lead. This episode is especially helpful for pastors, parish staff, and Catholic ministry leaders who are wondering whether a Rebuilt speaker, parish mission, or faith formation event could help their parish take a next step. Join us for the next Rebuilt Conference and experience practical formation, encouragement, and renewal alongside parish leaders from across the country.

    168| How This Parish Reached 10,000 Instagram Followers

    On this episode of the Rebuilt Parish Podcast, Melissa welcomes back Abby Daniels and introduces Andrea Zubiri-Flynn from St. Joseph Catholic Church in Libertyville, Illinois, to talk about a milestone many parishes dream about: reaching 10,000 followers on Instagram. Abby and Andrea share how their parish moved from simply posting announcements to creating intentional, engaging, and mission-focused content that helps them reach the next generation, connect with parishioners, and grow wider online. They talk about the value of real photos, parishioner stories, clergy involvement, trending content, and building a media ministry that includes multiple generations. This conversation is full of practical encouragement for parish leaders who know social media matters but feel overwhelmed by where to begin. Abby and Andrea remind us that digital outreach does not have to be complicated. Sometimes it starts with taking one photo, sharing one moment, answering one DM, and trusting that God can work even through the algorithm.

    166| Culture Is Everyone’s Job: Parish Leadership Lessons from Chick-fil-A

    In this episode of the Rebuilt Parish Podcast, Melissa Wilkinson and Tom Corcoran sit down with Natalie Marts, a Chick-fil-A owner/operator and parish leader at Church of the Nativity. Natalie shares her story of entrepreneurship, faith, leadership, and stewardship, from buying her first business at 19 years old to leading a thriving Chick-fil-A team in Towson, Maryland. Together, they explore what parish leaders can learn from business leadership, including how to balance relationships and results, build layers of leadership, develop young people, hire the right people, and create a healthy culture. Natalie also shares a powerful story about praying before 70,000 people at the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl and how God often prepares us before we even know what he is asking of us. This conversation is full of practical “nuggets” for pastors, parish staff, ministry leaders, and anyone working to build a healthier, mission-driven parish culture. Key Takeaways Parish leaders are called to be both relational and results-oriented. Caring for people does not mean avoiding accountability. Stewardship is not just about money. It is about recognizing that everything entrusted to us belongs to God. Healthy leadership requires layers. Growth depends on building teams, developing leaders, and giving people ownership. The personal ask matters. Many gifted leaders in the parish will not step forward until someone personally invites them. Culture is everyone’s job. It is shaped by what leaders model, celebrate, and tolerate. Want to be part of what’s next?

    164| From Good to Great: A Parish Renewal Story

    What happens when a parish team comes to the Rebuilt Conference, takes time to dream together, and then chooses to act on what God is stirring? In this episode, Melissa Wilkinson talks with Chris Kozlowski from St. Isidore Parish in Michigan about how his parish and family of parishes came to the Rebuilt Conference in 2025, invited Tom Corcoran and David Makela to lead a strategic offsite, and eventually entered Rebuilt coaching. Chris shares the intentional steps their team took, the leadership rhythm they are building, and the early signs of growth they are already seeing. Want to be part of what’s next? Join the Rebuilt Conference insiders list at rebuiltparish.com/conference to be the first to hear about early bird pricing, speaker announcements, event updates, and everything you need to start planning who from your parish should be in the room. If your parish feels stuck, encouraged but unsure where to begin, or ready to move from inspiration to action, this conversation offers a clear and hopeful path forward. In This Episode Why St. Isidore wanted to move from “good” to “great” How 10 leaders from a family of parishes came together for Rebuilt Conference Why the road trip became part of the team’s formation What stood out at the conference, from volunteers to hospitality to message series Why the team invited Rebuilt to lead a strategic offsite How coaching helped create accountability, rhythm, and momentum The measurable growth St. Isidore has seen through message series Chris’s encouragement for parish leaders who feel stuck Chapters / Timestamps 00:00 Introduction 00:23 St. Isidore’s parish context 01:28 Why “good” was not enough 02:11 Coming to conference as a family of parishes 04:47 Making the road trip intentional 06:21 Seeing the Rebuilt model come alive 08:02 What stood out in the sessions 09:52 Debriefing and dreaming on the ride home 11:36 Inviting Rebuilt to lead a strategic offsite 13:23 Building a leadership rhythm 15:54 The value of one-on-one conversations 16:53 Moving from offsite to coaching 17:26 How coaching creates accountability 20:27 Early growth through message series 22:29 Building toward small groups 23:54 Advice for parishes that feel stuck 26:10 How God has been at work 28:45 Closing encouragement and next steps Key Takeaways Bring your team, not just one person. St. Isidore brought 10 leaders from across their family of parishes to the Rebuilt Conference, which helped create shared vision and energy. Use travel time intentionally. Chris turned the road trip to and from the conference into a time for honest conversation, dreaming, and debriefing. Conference inspiration needs a next step. After returning home, the team knew they needed more than a great experience. They invited Rebuilt to lead a strategic offsite. An outside voice can help unlock momentum. Tom and David helped the team identify priorities, build action steps, and establish a leadership rhythm. Coaching creates accountability and alignment. Meeting every other week with David and Adrian has helped the team celebrate wins, name challenges, and keep moving forward. Small steps can lead to measurable growth. St. Isidore saw roughly 12–13% year-over-year growth at their Sunday evening Mass after introducing a message series. Renewal takes discipline. Chris compares parish renewal to becoming a professional athlete. Vision matters, but so do sacrifice, hard work, coaching, and intentional practice.
