You could argue that I (Dylan) have the responsibility seat, since I edit these shows every week. I actually recently adjusted my chair and have massively improved my seating arrangement. My arms can rest a little more naturally on the table now, instead of feeling like they’re at my shoulders all the time. It’s soContinue reading →

Alright fuck this episode. Fuck everyone on it. Fuck everyone who had the idea to attempt to replace me, the best host, BIG-D-MOTHERUCKING-DYLAN and fuck everyone who THOUGHT THEY COULD! Episode 9 is a bit different folks, while I (Dylan) was away on holiday for my 30th birthday, Matt and Mark took over the podcast in an attempt to replace me as a host. They interviewed 4 potential candidates, so I guess ya'll get to hear 4 starry-eyed folks in their failed attempt to snatch MY GODAMN CHAIR!! Those idiots are none other than Derek, Ayrad, OnlyOneBob and BethanyFoxx! But in all honesty this episode is pretty damn great, but you're not allowed to enjoy it without your favourite warboss ALRIGHT YA GITS?!?!! _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ If you haven't already please throw us a dollar over at https://www.patreon.com/letstalklorehammer Don't miss out on all the fun on the Lorehammer discord at https://discord.gg/fqKe36E

What is the best way to preach? Welcome to welcome to episode 161 of Practical Church Planting. Is it better to preach expositionally or topically? The reality is both methods and be done faithfully and effectively. In this episode, we discuss both methods and share these four reasons as to why we lean towards expositional preaching: People want to know what the Scriptures actually say People need to learn how all of the Bible is helpful People are confused about the hard passages they read. Personal experience: I (Dylan) always get better feedback from expositional sermons Connect and never miss an episode Be sure to subscribe to the podcast to get practical tips delivered right to you.

Some reflections on preaching through one book in a year. Welcome to welcome to episode 144 of Practical Church Planting. This year we did something different at New City Church and spent most of the year preaching through one book of the Bible (1 Corinthians). Here are four thoughts on how it went: I (Dylan) learned a lot Our people saw the relevance of Scripture Our people learned the importance of context Our people came hoping to learn what Scripture means and how to apply it Connect and never miss an episode.

A few years ago I (Dylan) had the pleasure of talking to the ex CEO of SEGA of America, the legendary Tom Kalinske, an interview that I duly transcribed and which you can read at the link below. The podcast has since taken off and we thought that it would be good to share the audio with you all. I was extremely nervous but trust me, Tom's ability to tell a story (mostly centred around bringing life to Sonic and going toe-to-toe with Nintendo in their prime) carries the podcast and ensures a great listen (when the sound doesn't cut out - oops!) https://www.arcadeattack.co.uk/tom-kalinske-sega/ Fancy discussing this podcast?

What are some pitfalls that stop churches from launching well? Welcome to welcome to episode 83 of Practical Church Planting. You can watch the episode below, or subscribe to the podcast and never miss an episode. In the past 3-4 years since I (Dylan) began the journey of launching New City Church, I’ve connected with a lot of hopeful church planters. Some that are leading churches that eventually launched and are faithfully impacting their communities, and some that weren’t able to get off the ground. Now to be clear, everything is under God’s control. You could be the best leader, speaker, and disciple maker in the world, but if God doesn’t move, nothing is going to happen. When I look at how New City came to be, all I can do is marvel at the many things God did that none of us can take any credit for. With that said, I have noticed a few reasons why some church plants don’t make it off the ground, so in this episode, we discuss four reasons in particular. Connect and never miss an episode.
