    Ep. 52 with Juan Pablo Herrera

    In this episode, Juan Pablo Herrera shares a deeply personal story of searching for belonging, healing from trauma and spiritual harm, and discovering a faith rooted in grace, justice, and belovedness. Raised in Chicago and shaped by years of community organizing around education, gentrification, and immigration, Juan reflects on how the struggles and resilience of his city have formed his vision for ministry. He also invites us into his work of Urban Village Church and the planting of a Spanish-speaking expression that centers LGBTQ voices and creates space for people who have long been pushed to the margins. This is a powerful conversation about authenticity, organizing, inclusion, Fresh Expressions, and the kind of church that becomes more faithful when it listens to those the world so often excludes.   About New People // New Ways What does a distinctly Wesleyan, Spirit-led movement that reaches people neglected by the church look like?

    Ep. 51 with Lynee Harrison

    Lynee Harrison's story is one of lifelong service, deep faith, and a calling to accompany people in their most vulnerable moments. In this episode, we hear how a simple welcome at Elderslie-St. Andrews UMC as a child led to a lifetime of leadership in the church, public service in Baltimore, and compassionate care for others. Lynee has spent her life helping people know that they are not alone. That same calling has now taken fresh form through YANA Church, a Fresh Expression launched to bring comfort and companionship to those experiencing isolation.   About New People // New Ways What does a distinctly Wesleyan, Spirit-led movement that reaches people neglected by the church look like?

    Ep. 45 with Matt Willis-Goode

    Matt Willis-Goode is a punk rock, neurodivergent pastor with 20 years of ministry experience and a passion for breathing new life into small churches. After co-founding The Vine in Haverhill, MA, he spent the next decade serving Peoples UMC and Merrimacport UMC in the Merrimack Valley. Through the Fresh Expressions pathway, Matt discovered language for what he’d been living all along—the Loving First Journey. By starting with love and deep listening, his congregations have reimagined what church can be. Their building now hums with life through weekly Jazz & Coffee open jam sessions and community gatherings, all rooted in relationship. In this conversation, Matt talks about transformation, creativity, and how punk rock theology meets Methodist mission in the most unexpected places.   About New People // New Ways What does a distinctly Wesleyan, Spirit-led movement that reaches people neglected by the church look like?
