A topic that is rarely discussed - at the table today. Pastors Jeff and Dave Leake unpack their thoughts on Pastors and Christians drinking alcohol. (J2232)
Jeff Leake has been pastoring a long time. He was the pastoral assistant 30 years ago. Two years in, the lead pastor moved to CA to work at another church… Jeff stepped into the interim role, then became the lead pastor. Today, he leads the same church— now a multi-site congregation, spanning 6 physical locations, in the PIttsburgh area. During this season he enjoys looking back and serving young leaders, pastors who stand in the position he found himself three decades ago. More so, he especially likes serving young leaders who want to plant a church. In this episode Jeff mentions “the good ol' days.” It's easy to look back and live nostalgically. But that's not what he refers to at all. He doesn't suggest we should just look back in order to complain about the present, either. Rather, looking back is a way to remind us of God's goodness, His faithfulness… Recently, Jeff rode through a nearby area with the leader of one of their first church plants outside the Pittsburgh area. “We drove through the streets,” he said, “and I remembered our drive years before— when the church didn't exist, when it was just an idea, a dream…” He adds, “As I sat on the front row of that church, celebrating that first decade, I was moved to tears. None of this was here just years before.” (We can also learn lesson when we glance in the rear view mirror. People say that experience is a great teacher, but mere experience isn't. EVALUATED experience, on the other hand, truly is.) “Looking back,” Jeff says, “offers the opportunity to celebrate the faithfulness you can easily forget.” Many pastors faced a “crisis of faith” coming through the pandemic. (Some are still feeling it, in fact.) Jeff refers this to “pruning in the pandemic.” And, he reminds us that “God's pruning is always for our good AND for future fruit” (see John 15:1f.). “Even when it comes in odd ways,” he adds. “Even then we can look back and see his past faithfulness…” What does this pruning include? Jeff refers to something MANY of the guest on the podcast have referenced: “We've been measuring the wrong things.” Or— “We've measured the right things in the wrong ways…” Jeff endeavors to transform his church into a “Barnabas house,” that is, a place of encouragement— sacred space which launches people into their calling. Barnabas is the Apostle who sold a plot of land and gave the proceeds to the early church. He's the leader who stood by Paul, effectively endorsing him when everyone else was still nervous about his recent conversion. He's the sage who believed in Mark, also, even though he'd bailed on Paul and Barnabas amidst their first mission venture. You know the outputs of these actions… The church had resources to feed the widows and expand its footprint. Paul led mission trips, planted churches, and penned the letters which became the Scriptures we often read. Mark wrote what many believe to be the first Gospel. At each beginning of each of these stories stands that character Barnabas, the one who breathed life into people and pushed them— in a healthy way— towards their call. ++++++++ Links: Allison Park Church Allison Park Leadership Network = AllisonParkLeadershipNetwork.com Gears of Growth = www.CourageousPastors.com/ogg Schedule a free Strategy Session = www.CourageousPastors.com/strategy

Early in his ministry, Jeff Leake faced a problem common to growing churches: He needed a new larger building but didn't have enough money. So he prayed, “God, we have a problem, and it seems that You are not offering any solutions here!” The thing about talking to God is that He talks back, and Leake felt God saying this to him: “Have you considered that I have a problem too?” God's problem, it turned out, was that too many pastors were interested in growing their churches and too few interested in reaching their cities. That encounter with God took Leake on a church-planting journey. In Twelve Trends in Church Multiplication, he talks about different ways local churches can reproduce themselves in new congregations. I'll be talking to him about this book in this episode of the Influence Podcast. I'm George P. Wood, executive editor of Influence magazine and your host. Jeff Leake is lead pastor of Allison Park Church in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, which has seven campuses and has planted 31 new churches. ----- This episode of the Influence Podcast is brought to you by My Healthy Church, distributors of Bible Engagement Project.

A New Set of Blueprints — Jeff Leake of Allison Park Church Some people think that multiplication is just the “new hotness” for people who plant. But the reality is that established churches can plant just as well, if not better, than newer churches. Sometimes, becoming a multiplying church is simply a matter of focus. For Jeff Leake of Allison Park Church in Pennsylvania, his focus couldn't have been more different. When he took the pastorate there after the church had been through a rough time, he was focused on merely surviving, and not getting too crunched in the process. Church growth would have been nice, but he wasn't counting on it. But, the church slowly did begin to grow, and when they hit a space capacity issue that turned into a dead end, Jeff began to seek God like never before. Out of this “sink or swim” mentality, God began to share his heart with Jeff, and focus his vision on something completely different. You could say that the story of Allison Park Church in Pennsylvania is a story of God interrupting a leader's plans, and giving him a new set of blueprints. Today, Allison Park Church is focused more on its “grand-daughter churches” than its “daughter” churches. The church even has some great-grandchildren because it has multiplied out 31 times in the last 24 years. This episode's topics include: How God uses desperation in a leader's life Creating a multiplication culture within your church Modeling multiplication for the next generation How to deal with the pain when those you send seem ungrateful and hurt you How to know when your vision for your church is “too small” Tune into this Exponential Reproducing Churches Podcast as Jeff Leake helps refocus our vision to what God is doing, and possibly wants to do in your city.
