    Episode 324: Radical Unavailability - An Interview with michael Forney

    Pastors, ever feel like your phone has a spiritual gift for ringing at the worst possible moment? In this episode, we dive into the holy art of becoming—brace yourself—radically unavailable. Yes, we’re talking about saying “no,” ignoring notifications, and trusting that the Kingdom of God will not collapse if you take a nap. Join us as we talk with Michael Forney, COO of the Free Methodist Church USA. Together we explore how stepping away (without guilt) might just save your sanity, your family, and your ministry.

    Episode 323: Short-term or Long-term Pain?

    Most of us carry at least one relationship that feels fractured. Maybe we’ve avoided the hard conversation. Maybe we’ve held our breath, hoping time will fix what’s unresolved. But healing rarely comes through avoidance. Fractured relationships may heal when we address them—and sometimes they don’t. Yet the moment we stop delaying, the power they hold over our well-being begins to break. If you’re walking through relational strain—or helping others navigate it—today’s episode offers clarity, compassion, and real hope.

    Episode 322: The Two Hats Every Leader Wears

    In ministry, every pastor wears two essential hats: the shepherd and the leader. Jesus modeled this perfectly—coming “full of grace and truth”—and Paul echoed it when he urged us to “speak the truth in love.” The challenge? Most leaders naturally lean toward one hat or the other. But when we rely on only one, we either keep people too comfortable to grow or push them too hard to stay encouraged. In today’s episode, we’re diving into how to integrate both hats so the people you serve can grow, stretch, and thrive. Email blast one-liner: Shepherd or Leader? Why Your Ministry Needs Both.

    Episode 320: Always On: Why Leaders Won't Unplug

    Many of the moral failures we hear about—and countless more that never make the news—can often be traced back to two forces: isolation and exhaustion. In today’s episode, we unpack why these two quiet pressures are so dangerous, how they sneak up on even the strongest leaders, and what it really takes to build a life and leadership that can withstand them.

    Episode 319: The Challenge of Getting Younger

    In our latest episode, we’re diving into what it really takes to “get younger” as a church. We unpack the common misunderstandings churches often have about younger members and attendees, and we explore practical ways to bridge the growing generational gap. If the church you lead is trying to connect with Gen Z, Gen Alpha, or even young Millennials, this conversation is for you.

    Episode 318: My Most Important Aha in 2025

    Every January, John reflects on the biggest “aha moments” from the past year. Normally, he would share three or four major insights, but this past year, one stood out so strongly that it deserves an entire episode of its own. It’s a deep one—personal, vulnerable, and maybe even a little shocking. So today, John is pulling back the curtain to share the single biggest “aha” that changed everything for him in 2025.

    Episode 317: The Myth of "Arriving"

    Today we kick off the new year with a challenge that could change everything: what if the biggest barrier to your growth isn’t your strategy, resources, or talent—but your mindset? In this episode, we dive into how great leaders think differently, exploring the power of a true growth mindset and why it’s the secret ingredient that separates the exceptional from the average.
