Send us a Text Message.When they find out that their child is somewhere on the LGBTQ+ spectrum, parents are often forced to examine their faith in entirely new ways, and it's hard stuff–earth shifting, ground shaking, life changing, relationship destroying sort of hard.

Welcome to Episode 14 of Mindful Leader!  This is our second visit with Bearded Theologian and Pastor at Bozeman (Montana) UMC-- Zach Bechtold!  The first conversation we had was July 23rd and can be found as a podcast HERE. (Please share on social media or via email or text message the link if this podcast spoke to you!) Zach is part of a wave of younger clergy leading a number of our pillar churches.  Zach's LinkedIn page is HERE. Zach partners with Matt Skinner (of Castle Rock (CO) UMC ) on their joint blog and podcast -- The Bearded Theologians -- HERE.   Zach and I start our conversation drawing from remarks Bishop Karen Oliveto of the Mountain Sky Conference of the United Methodist Church made during a clergy retreat in September.  Further, she, Matt and Zach also discussed it on a United Methodist "Podcastathon" in early October.  A link to that conversation is HERE.   Finding joy in leadership has been an important personal core value and I wanted to expand on that discussion with Zach.  What we do as pastoral leaders is serious but we don't have to be so serious in our leadership.   I mention a Roman Catholic Priest -- and I forgot his name during the discussion (whoops) -- and it was Father John Neuhaus.  His wiki bio is HERE.  The magazine he started was First Things -- HERE.  While Father Neuhaus was there, I read it regularly.  Now, not so much.  Traditional.   We mention New York Times Opinion Writer -- David Brooks.  His wiki bio is HERE.  Brooks is regularly on Public Television on Friday night during the News Hour with Jonathon Capehart -- Excellent, I try and watch it weekly.  Resume and Eulogy virtues are quickly summarized HERE.  The Brooks Opinion piece is called "The Moral Bucket List" and it is HERE.  Note:  The NYT has a paywall and if it blocks you and you want to read the piece, send me a note and I can "gift" you a copy of the piece where he lays it out.  A transcript of a Ted Talk on this topic by Brooks is HERE.   This podcast was released on November 20th, 2023! Our next guest is Annie Arnoldy of the Mountain Sky Conference of the UMC Office:  Visioning and Dreaming!  It will be released on December 4th.   The Kristi Kinnison podcast is the new gold standard for Mindful Leader.  By far in terms of downloads the best to date!  HERE.   My normal release schedule is 1st and 3rd Mondays.  I will release "Special Podcasts" on 5th Mondays (usually four times a year). Look for Mindful Leader with the Logo from this Podcast on your Podcast App or follow on Podbean.  Send comments to me at dennis at (@ symbol) mantuan dot (the .) org ... and typed that way to confound the bots!

This week on the Beardcast Matt and Zach sat down with Bishop Karen Oliveto and talked about life and ministry in today's world.

Message sent via email:   Dear sisters and brothers of Bozeman United Methodist Church, Grace and peace to you all as we begin the season of Advent.   It is my pleasure to share with you that, in response to the request of your Staff Parish Relations Committee,  Bishop Karen Oliveto has chosen to appoint the Rev. Amy Strader as full time pastor of Bozeman UMC as of January 1, 2020. Rev. Eric Strader will continue as part time pastor at Bozeman UMC and part time as Congregational Resource Minister for the Montana West District.  I am grateful for the gifts and graces that Rev. Amy brings to your congregation, and for the gifts and graces that Rev. Eric brings to your congregation and to the District CRM position.  I am excited about the possibilities for your ministry together, and trust that this will reflect good stewardship of financial resources and of gifts and skills.   Also, a Church Conference will be held, according to the Discipline, on Sunday, December 15, at 11:45 a.m. to approve the pastoral compensation for 2020. May the Holy Spirit guide your ministry to the people of your community.   Blessings, Jan Witman District Superintendent, Montana West   —————-   To that, the BUMC Personnel Team would add:   A reminder that when Rev. Amy and Rev. Eric were appointed 18 months ago to BUMC it was less than full time.   This shift allows for more clergy presence in the church to focus on the pastoral care of the community. In order to continue to be fiscally responsible, we will not be rehiring the Nurture Care position, held by Kim Broden, but instead dividing responsibilities between Rev. Amy and our new Office Coordinator, Allie Zanieri-Hale. Allie will coordinate office needs, alongside supporting database management, and recruiting volunteers - YOU - for ministry needs and opportunities.   Rev. Amy will continue to oversee discipleship ministries including; campus, youth, children, and mission, as well as retaining her role on the Board of Bozeman Health System and community needs. In addition, Rev. Amy will be taking over responsibilities of pastoral care and head up the Stephen Ministry Leadership team.   Rev. Eric will continue to oversee administration and worship while supporting the district in church vitality and clergy coaching as the Congregational Resource Minister.   Please join us to celebrate Kim’s ministry on Dec. 8th in between worship services!
