I was baptized by this guy
sry for your loss
How utterly vile
Encouraging video 🙂
Thanks for having Peyton on! My wife and I are reading Church Plantology now!
I'm gonna go back and transcribe this episode.
I am a regular listener, subscriber and this is one of the best episodes yet. Very powerful.
Pastors go through their own hell and then we have to go through hell with our flock.
The biggest thing that helped me was writing out all my requests daily, some in detail, some entire prayers. Praying for an hour is easy. 2 hours is doable. Plus, I can remember requests later, I can show others I've been praying for them, and I can go back and highlight the request when it gets answered.
When communion tokens were first issued in Scotland, keep in mind that communion was held once maybe twice a year. When Scotland separated from the church of England, they were called The Free Church of Scotland. This is how the Protestant church began. Look how the word "Protestant" is.........protest....ant. On some of the Communion Tokens there is a number. This number is for the table where one is to take seat. In that day, communion lasted for two or three days. I would recommend reading the book "Communion Tokens" by Michael Shutty PHD.
My church when singing a new song my worship minister will have us sing three or four weeks in a row
This is a hot button for me. The main thing I think we have done wrong is equate worship with music. I love singing, and I love hymns, but none of the people who came up and worshipped Jesus in the gospels used music. We are not teaching our people that speaking praise is worship, obedience is worship, sacrifice is worship, etc. Thank you for bringing this up and speaking the truth about this. I fear some just worship worship and not God. Take this whole idea of the meaning and expression of worship further guys.
There is no way to make disciples vicariously.
I just posted this on FB. Everyone should post this podcast on their social media. Absolute gold.
I was a Texas Baptist for 65 years and never heard that statement about radical disobedience of the GC once. It's about time, praise, God!

I am planting a church! No one is sending us! A matter of fact namb turned me down years ago! A lot of folks turned us down! So my family have waited for 10 years for a door to open so my wife and I are leading worship together and I preach the word we have a core group of about 25/30 so far! I am a full time hospice chaplain and my wife works also! We are in it to reach the lost not for a job! We love our community because we live in our community!

Today's podcast has been very very encouraging for me. I've not been paid in pastoral ministry since 2019. I was starting a church as NAMB Send Network Church Planting missionary in WV. Since COVID I have pastored the same way online through Facebook Live ACTS Church that at the time was in WV, now in NC. Every Sunday I preach expository sermons without pay. For the past 3 years I've been seeking an established church to pastor in obedience to the Lord. No church seems to be interested in calling me. However, I am willing to pastor without pay. I would be thrilled just to pastor a church in person. I am trusting in God's perfect timing and yes even if it was a replant or revitalization. The bottom line is this calling is not for those who expects certain desires met.
Hang in there brother 😁🙏✌️
Is a church planter an Apostle ?
Amen❤
Good ideas. I sent this link to our youth minister.
it is Abraham from ethiopia. I am a teacher in the church. Now as the will of I need your help to plant a church. Please fund me contact me.❤
We have prayer meeting every Thursday night for the last 19 yrs . Its been powerful.
Love seeing kids at church they bring life to a church. Such a blessing they are
I can confirm anecdotally about the non-denom growth. Our church has grown to need a second service. But we baptized no one last year! As an old SBCer, I'm pushing to get back to a GC emphasis, so going forward, we can see conversion growth.
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Great Idea and yet am looking for church planters to fulfill my desire of serving for the lord.I need you what to do in order to be part of the mission
That was so unhelpful. I'm sorry but you need to explain what you are actually talking about. Unless you point was to make me apologize for not understanding. Is that apologetics? Lol.
I have been waiting 10 years to plant a church! I went to a lot of agencies including NAMB and we were rejected. Matter of fact no one would even coach me on how to plant! Now 10 years later a door has opened and we are meeting at church on Sunday evenings! I do understand what the pastor is saying you can’t expect to fail! Don’t wait until someone approves your dream, go after it!
❤ 😊
Struggles + no abiding = burnout Struggles + abiding = perseverance
I need a desperately need a mentor. I feel inadequate enough most of the time but when I hear the big things you guys are able to do I just want to crumble.
I love this podcast! Feels like it’s for me! Also, I love that you guys have fun together, reminds me of Psalm 133 ❤
Thank you
This is eye opening. More Grace to you all!
Esse canal é uma benção de Deus na minha vida. Sempre aprendo muito com as conversas compartilhadas aqui. Moro no Brasil e sou seminarista de uma Igreja Batista em revitalização. Creio que veremos um comunhão e verdadeira unidade em pouco tempo. Ore por nós irmãos. Um abraço fraterno!
Good stuff!
Thx
A pastors wife should set the example of being a home maker to the church. Not working
