Paul Dickerson, Associate Pastor at Christ Memorial Church, shares his journey from attorney to ministry and explores how business principles can transform church leadership and growth. While Paul values liturgical practices and their powerful connection to historical faith, he challenges listeners to consider when rituals become roadblocks rather than pathways to Jesus. Through compelling stories – from a young man shamed for wearing a hat in church to a karate instructor finding his place in worship – we glimpse both the pitfalls and possibilities of creating truly hospitable Christian communities.• From practicing law to pursuing seminary, Paul's transition shows how God redirects careers toward ministry• Churches are experiencing more adult baptisms as new people discover faith through relational connections• The "Innovator's Dilemma" explains why good organizations fail by listening exclusively to existing customers• Value networks in churches can create systems that unintentionally exclude newcomers• Balancing 70% maintenance, 20% improvement, and 10% innovation helps churches stay healthy• Traditions are valuable but become problematic when they're not hospitable to outsiders• Pastoral ministry in 2050 will likely involve more distributed leadership beyond ordained roles• Relationships remain central to sharing the gospel—each church member has connections with people far from JesusSupport the showWatch Us On Youtube!

What does it look like when gospel renewal is forged through suffering and planted in the heart of a global city? In this conversation, Esteban Valenzuela, pastor of Raíces Madrid Evangelical Christian Church, shares his remarkable story of personal transformation, perseverance through false accusation, and the sovereign call of God that led him and his family to Madrid, Spain.Mike Neglia and Esteban talk about the power of gospel renewal — not just as a theological concept, but as a lived reality. Esteban reminds us that the gospel is the cornerstone of Scripture and the Christian life, and warns against shallow repetition of gospel language without depth or clarity. They also discuss the challenges of church planting, how God works through weak sermons and weak preachers, and why having a clear message truly matters.Join Mike Neglia and Brian Kelly at the upcoming CGN Ministry Conference June 22-25, 2025 This conference is designed for church leaders and their ministry teams to connect, collaborate, and grow together.

What happens when the gospel you were handed no longer makes sense of the pain, beauty, or complexity of the world you're actually living in? In this conversation, I sit down with Nicholas McDonald, pastor and author of The Light in Our Eyes, to explore the tensions between disillusionment and hope, escape and embodiment, cynicism and renewal. Nicholas brings a pastor's heart, a theologian's depth, and the honesty of someone who's wrestled with real questions and has found the freedom, beauty, and love that Jesus can bring. We talk about what 40 million people walking away from the church actually means, why so many are rejecting not Jesus, but a culture of fear and power, and how the recovery of ancient practices, communal faith, and a more embodied gospel could help us reimagine the way forward. From Zechariah's silence to Jim Henson's Muppets, from dispensational escape theology to communion as resistance - this conversation covers a lot of ground, and all of it matters. So join us as we find the light of Christ has been present all along.Nicholas McDonald is the Associate Pastor at Redeemer Presbyterian church in central Indianapolis and has served in ministry for over fifteen years. His previous positions have included roles in youth ministry and four years as the Campus Minister of Reformed University Fellowship at the University of Missouri. McDonald received his degree from Gordon Conwell Seminary and studied creative writing at Oxford University. He's the author of Faker, and the forthcoming book "The Light in Our Eyes: Rediscovering the Love, Beauty and Freedom of Jesus in an Age of Disillusionment". He lives in Indianapolis with his wife and their three children.Nicholas' Book:The Light in Our EyesNicholas' Recommendation:The Meaning of SinglenessSubscribe to Our Substack: Shifting CultureConnect with Joshua: jjohnson@allnations.usGo to www.shiftingculturepodcast.com to interact and donate.

Acts 10 tells the story of Cornelius, a Roman centurion who feared God and did good works, but still needed salvation through Jesus. At the same time, God was preparing Peter to overcome cultural boundaries to share the Gospel. This moment marked a historic breakthrough: salvation was not just for the Jews, but for everyone. This story reminds us that God is already moving in the hearts of people before we even show up. As we obey, God opens doors for His Kingdom to be advanced through our lives.Russell TolentinoSunday, June 8, 2025 Live at 6:00 PM

Is There Fruit? Let's take a look with our Associate Pastor Tommy Seigle today. Welcome!

Too many boys are turning to virtual worlds of television, video games, digital media, and the internet to find realms they can conquer and areas where they can excel. The result of this virtual conquest is often apathy, apparent rebellion, or outright resistance to real-world challenge. How can a biblical worldview speak to this issue and offer young men a flourishing vision for their future?  Today's guest is Mark Hancock, who is the CEO of Trail Life. Mark began his career founding a national advertising agency and running it for fifteen years. His conversion to Christ led him into ministry as a Youth and College Pastor, Associate Pastor, Homeless Ministry Director and Global Event Director for an international ministry, organizing events on five continents. He holds two Masters Degrees in the Mental Health Counseling field, having spent several years in private practice, and has taught at secular and Christian colleges. Mark has been a guest on numerous radio and television programs including: Fox Nation's Starnes Country, Family Life Radio, Focus on the Family, and James Dobson's Family Talk Program. In 2017, Mark was named to the American Family Association's '40 Faithful'. An author, award-winning writer, and conference speaker, he serves as Chief Executive Officer of Trail Life USA and lives near Greenville, SC with his wife of over 30 years. They  have two sons.

Pastor Dave Pack, Associate Pastor

Steve is an Associate Pastor at our church. He wears many hats (which we discuss a bit). However today, our focus is on one of his less public but probably more important roles, shepherding our benevolence ministry.

We continue in our series Letter to the Hebrews—An Unshakeable Kingdom. Join us this week as we continue in Chapter 12 of Hebrews. Pastor Glenn & Janice are away so we are happy to have Dave Nannery, Associate Pastor at SBC join us to bring the Word. As we discovered last Sunday, true faith must and always will be tested. In the Christian life, hardship is not a sign that God is absent but a sign that He is treating us as sons and daughters. We hope you will join us and be encouraged from the Word of God. Read Hebrews 12:3-17 to prepare for the message and bring your Study Guides!

The early church wasn't perfect, but it was powerful. These believers reordered their lives around Jesus as they lived with devoted hearts, open hands, and joyful simplicity. God transformed lives and expanded His kingdom. What if we lived like that too?Russell TolentinoSunday, June 8, 2025 Live at 6:00 PM

What does it take to establish a strong foundation for church work formation and recruitment in the culture of our congregations, schools, and the larger church body? The Rev. Dr. Lucas Woodford (President of the LCMS Minnesota South District, Regent at Concordia University St. Paul, and Associate Pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in Farmington, MN) and the Rev. David Nehrenz (President of the LCMS Oklahoma District and Pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in Norman, OK) join Andy and Sarah to talk about their paths to becoming a pastor and district president, how each of their districts is forming and recruiting church workers, why a mindset for formation and recruitment is important, why collaboration on growing a culture of church work formation across the LCMS is important, why it's particularly crucial to have the support and collaboration of schools in this culture, and the benefits each has seen so far from these collaborative efforts in Set Apart to Serve in their districts and across Synod. Christ's church will continue until He returns, and that church will continue to need church workers. Set Apart to Serve (SAS) is an initiative of the LCMS to recruit church workers. Together, we pray for workers for the Kingdom of God and encourage children to consider church work vocations. Here are three easy ways you can participate in SAS: 1. Pray with your children for God to provide church workers. 2. Talk to your children about becoming church workers. 3. Thank God for the people who work in your congregation.

In a world that constantly overstimulates, Stillness In Surrender explores how true peace—shalom—is found not in escaping chaos, but in surrendering to Jesus the one who is peace Himself. Through personal stories, Scripture, and raw honesty, we unpack why peace often feels out of reach and how shifting our perspective and letting go can change everything. This message reminds us that peace isn't a feeling to chase, but a person to trust—Jesus.
