In today’s episode, we talk with Pastor John Dougherty as he gives guidance to 190 churches, their pastors, and constituencies in Georgia. He encourages pastors to be open to how the Lord might be working on the heart of a volunteer to think of going into ministry. We can facilitate that when we build farm teams of leading volunteers who could begin to be considered to fill ministry positions in the church as those might materialize.

Join us as we spend time in conversation with denominational executive Gene Roncone, who leads 160 churches, 525 ministers, and 44,000 constituents in Colorado and Utah. He discusses a crisis need among pastors and that is their isolation from others, including other pastors. Pastor Gene uses the phrase that “too many pastors are locking the door from the inside” when they most desperately need others to help them live whole and healthy ministry lives.

Even the best leaders don’t have the keys today for tomorrow’s growth.

The answers you need to grow your church are out there—in the minds and hearts of leaders who are already where you want to be. And if you could fly yourself to their churches, sit down with them over a cup of coffee, you’d be set.

But that’s tough. You might not have the resources to hop on a plane and travel around the country to take ministry experts out for coffee.

But what if the experts came to you?

That’s why we created Leaders.Church.

Designed by ministry leaders like you who wanted access to the best church leadership training without shelling out lots of money and time to attend the best conferences, Leaders.Church brings the best church leadership training in the world to you.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) – You can be afraid of AI, or you can use it to further the Gospel. That’s a major piece of the conversation we had with Alabama pastor, Bobby Gourley. AI should never diminish your time digging into the word to prepare Spirit-anointed sermons. However, it can do so much to streamline your everyday tasks in the leadership of the local church and in some cases save the church money.
