Customer Reviews
Thankful
Excellent.
An amazing help to me in my bi-co-vocational ministry.
This podcast is an amazing help to me in my bi-co-vocational ministry. I am currently revitalizing two churches in two different denominations that both had lost 90% of their attendees. I also hold a 45+hour a week full time healthcare CEO job. I have to listen to this with my finger over the rewind button as I ask myself, “did he really say that?” :-)
It’s not a Resource
Rainer and friends are great, however, they are not equipping people through Podcasts. It’s a platform for salesmanship. It’s not a “resource”, it’s a product. A helpful product, but not a church resource. Resources are free supports to systems, otherwise, it’s a product, a 3-Star Product.
