In this episode of The Small Church Ministry Podcast, Laurie names something many small churches deal with—but haven't had the words for: ministry silos. You know when two ministries plan events on the same night—and no one realizes it? Or you hear about something great after it already happened? That's a silo—and it's more common than we think. We'll talk about why silos form, how they quietly hurt small churches, and—best of all—how to start breaking them down without adding more to your plate.In this episode, you'll hear:1. Signs your church might be stuck in silo-mode2. Why silos are especially harmful in smaller churches3. How collaboration can bring momentum and support4. Practical ways to start building bridges5. One simple conversation that can spark real changeJoin our free Facebook Community: www.facebook.com/groups/smallchurchministryRate, Review, & Follow Laurie on Apple Podcasts"I love Laurie and The Small Church Ministry Podcast!!"

Community of Christ's 2025 World Conference passed the G-10 resolution, entitled “Earth Stewardship Affirmation.” While some question the need for such a resolution, there is no doubt that the call for accountability was heard and supported.  The question remains whether or not the “support” will manifest itself in necessary action. Join host, Susan Oxley, as she sits down with Rick Bunch, chair of Community of Christ's World Church Earth Stewardship Team and lifelong contributor to natural resource management, to talk about why the time for hesitation is past and the time for action is now!   Check out the free Earth Stewardship resources mentioned by Rick in this episode. Download TranscriptThanks for listening to Project Zion Podcast!Follow us on Facebook and Instagram!Intro and Outro music used with permission: “For Everyone Born,” Community of Christ Sings #285.

What does punk rock have to do with the heart of the Gospel? In this episode, the Voxology team, joined by the Dr. Timothy Gombis, dives deep into the unexpected intersections of radical community, inclusivity, and the teachings of Jesus. From punk rock's raw authenticity to the profound ministry of disability-focused communities that Mike recently experienced at the "Hope Heals" camp. The conversation explores how cruciformity—the self-giving love of Jesus—emerges in unlikely places. Along the way, they unpack the role of the church in society, faith and politics, and navigating cultural challenges with humility and curiosity. By reflecting on the ways marginalized voices reveal the Gospel's power, the team challenges traditional notions of faith and invites listeners to reimagine how justice, community, and theology come alive in everyday life. Whether discussing mutual ministry, the prophetic edge of punk culture, or stories of transformative love, this episode is a powerful reminder that the Gospel is both disruptive and healing. We encourage and would love for you to join this conversation. Share your thoughts on how faith intersects with culture and community on Facebook and Instagram, or email us your questions as we pursue deeper understanding together. Let's journey forward in learning, dialogue, and the radical love of Jesus.

Edition No181 | 07-07-2025 - This episode humorously examines the suspicious death of people working under Putin, comparing these incidents to critical "Windows errors," suggesting the regime might need a reboot. We discuss this pattern of mysterious deaths and unexplained accidents, and the impact of these events on the perception of working inside Russia. Stay tuned as we delve into this dark history and try to understand the possible causes.----------PLASMA AND AMBULANCES APPEAL:Please write to: Director Objective Ukraine, Info@ObjectiveUkraine.comBefore we do this is a message from a dear friend in Kyvi who works with the Ukrainian Armed Forces and Ministry of Defence. He says, there is a serious shortage of blood plasma here in Ukraine. He has had several messages from ex-comrades and medics, asking if the Allies can help find much needed plasma for medical stations at various depths behind the 'zero' or frontline. This shortage is killing wounded fighting men and women and, all too often, the medics and ambulance drivers who try to evacuate them.A medic friend who has been saving lives in Ukraine for three years, he says, explained how she lost four medic friends and units sustained several casualties, because of the lack of medical evacuation units, ambulances at the front and plasma. During recent delays in receiving equipment and supplies, one group had to walk out...like WW1 stretcher bearers...during which episode they suffered 50% casualties from enemy drones. Including new solar powered drone variants. We desperately need to find ways to improve casualty survival rates, with basic supplies like plasma that we take for granted outside Ukraine. ----------CHAPTERS:00:00 Introduction: Putin's Regime Under Scrutiny00:30 Wave of Unexplained Deaths Among Russia's Elite01:02 Case Studies of Suspicious Deaths04:24 Expert Opinions and Analysis06:23 International Ramifications and Economic Impact07:28 Recent Developments: Grounded Jets and Arrests09:55 Conclusion: The Insecurity of Putin's Regime10:15 Urgent Appeal for Blood Plasma in Ukraine----------LINKS: https://foreignpolicy.com/2025/06/03/russia-putin-ukraine-war-trump-strategy-politics/?tpcc=recirc_more_from_fp051524 https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/2061159/president-finland-putin-mistake https://theconversation.com/history-shows-that-donald-trump-is-making-a-serious-error-in-appeasing-vladimir-putin-257252 https://www.businessinsider.com/putin-copying-soviet-union-approach-bankrupted-russia-poland-minister-davos-2025-1 https://mickryan.substack.com/p/another-big-putin-mistake https://www.theglobalist.com/russia-china-united-states-europe-geopolitics-ukraine-war-donald-trump-vladimir-putin/ https://edition.cnn.com/2025/05/27/world/video/stubb-putin-strategy-live-fst052707pseg1-cnn-world-fast https://ig.ft.com/russias-war-in-ukraine-mapped/ https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/ukrainealert/putins-biggest-mistake-was-believing-ukrainians-were-really-russians/ https://www.rferl.org/a/russia-putin-fundamental-mistake-snyder/32824024.html----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:Save Ukrainehttps://www.saveukraineua.org/Superhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

Do you feel like you are crawling through life like a worm when God has created you to soar like a butterfly? Brother Duane teaches the importance of renewing our minds as Christians. The "Spirit of Our Mind" refers to our attitude or mindset, which influences not only what we think but also how we think. This message emphasizes the need to adopt a biblical worldview rather than a secular perspective. Exploring the metaphor of metamorphosis, we discover that transformation works from the inside out, like a caterpillar becoming a butterfly or a tadpole becoming a bullfrog. By aligning our thoughts with God's truth, a metamorphosis occurs within us. This change is not the result of an external effort, but rather through God's Spirit working within us. This inner transformation renews our minds through His Word, leading to true freedom and spiritual growth.

Sunday morning message from the pulpit of Falls Baptist Church

Sermon from the pulpit of Falls Baptist Church

SUMMARY: In this sermon, we explored Ephesians 4:12-16 and the central theme of maturity within the church. We began by asking why unity, diversity, and theology matter, and discovered that the answer is maturity—growing up together as the body of Christ. Maturity is not just about personal growth but about being equipped, building up others, and engaging in the real “game” of faith outside the church walls. We discussed the importance of being knowledgeable about Jesus, developing stability in our faith, and ensuring that every member is both connected and contributing. The ultimate goal is a church where each person finds their place, serves with purpose, and grows together into the fullness of Christ.

Luke 20:19-21:4 - A Day in the Life and Ministry 101 - Pastor Dan PlourdeMESSAGE NOTES:http://www.calvaryword.com/Luke/a1411.pdf

It's one thing to say, “Don't worry, God will take care of you,” but it's quite another to live it out. As a matter of fact, some would argue that God gives us brains so we can think about what we need and plan accordingly.  But... in this week's passage from the Gospel of Luke, Jesus tells his disciples to go out and witness ... and take nothing with you.  WHAT!? Join hosts Karin Peter and Blake Smith for a conversation on living in the hospitality that is the kingdom of God. Download TranscriptThanks for listening to Project Zion Podcast!Follow us on Facebook and Instagram!Intro and Outro music used with permission: “For Everyone Born,” Community of Christ Sings #285.

Edition No180 | 06-07-2025 - Today we'll dig deep into why Putin's strategy in Ukraine is failing, why pursuing the same delusion objectives using the same methods was always going to fail. We'll question n why Trump has back the wrong horse – decided to appease a loser, and what all this reveals about Putin's regime and its likely downfall. How it's collapse will rebound negatively onto Trump. And in case you're wondering, the horse with glasses in the video thumbnail is Lavrov. He is already so close to resembling a horse, very few modifications to the image were required. And yes, Putin does have donkey ears in the same image. ----------PLASMA AND AMBULANCES APPEAL:Please write to: Director Objective Ukraine, Info@ObjectiveUkraine.comBefore we do this is a message from a dear friend in Kyvi who works with the Ukrainian Armed Forces and Ministry of Defence.

Chai Can't Even usually focuses on young adults and why they stay in the church, but this time, host Blake Smith is sitting down with Tore Nilsen, whose grandfather was one of the first converts in Norway, and who is himself in his 80s. As a matter of fact, he was a young adult when his grandfather thought he was old enough to be baptized. Since then, he's spent his years serving in various leadership roles in the church while the church changed… in a good way … around him. Listen in and be inspired by one who has stayed and still has great hope! Download TranscriptThanks for listening to Project Zion Podcast!Follow us on Facebook and Instagram!Intro and Outro music used with permission: “For Everyone Born,” Community of Christ Sings #285.

Get ready to laugh, learn, and maybe even tear up a little as we spill the beans LIVE from a Fresh Grounded Faith event in Bloomington, Illinois! My good friends Margaret Feinberg and Michael O'Brien joined me, and what an honest, hope-filled conversation we had in answering questions from the audience. We talked about the best way to handle stress and worry, how to know if God is calling you to step back in ministry, and what to do when grief knocks the wind out of you. Michael opens up about how his identity took a hit when he left the band, NewSong, and Margaret tells a hilarious (and slightly horrifying) story about showing up to an event without her pants. Yep, it happened! Today, we're answering your big questions, sharing our most embarrassing moments, and reminding you that God is present—even in the hard stuff.

Dr. Jay Butler is an infectious disease physician, epidemiologist, and former Deputy Director for Infectious Diseases at the CDC. We had the joy of hosting Dr Butler in the BioLogos offices recently where we shared his perspective on public health as a ministry, discussing his career journey from the CDC to working with Alaska Native communities. He also delves into the history of measles, its impact, and the groundbreaking development of the MMR vaccine, which has saved millions of lives globally. The conversation explores the challenges of public trust in medical research and institutions, especially concerning vaccines, and how science and faith can come together to pursue truth and improve public health outcomes.

Jonna Schuster aimed for picture-perfect faith. Until everything started to fall apart. Jonna's perfectionist tendencies left her drained and unhappy—she even started having health problems.  When Jonna attended a silent retreat with Passionist Nuns in Kentucky, everything changed. While a blizzard raged outside the chapel, Jonna knelt alone inside. She felt the indescribable touch of God—like she was being held in His hand.  Over time, Jonna learned to let go of her habits of self-sufficiency and people-pleasing. She experienced the newfound freedom of being her authentic self with God and others.  Listen to Jonna in this series, “Women of Wisdom,” and be blessed with the kind of internal freedom that only comes from God.

They share practical wisdom about externalizing your plans (either in meticulously organized binders or digital systems) to create both present peace and future efficiency.Camp Brain, Binder Blues, & the Post-Camp FogIt's that time of year—when youth pastors everywhere go from pre-camp jitters to post-camp exhaustion in just five sleepless days!

Mike Gormley and Dave VanVickle share their thoughts on Pope Leo, unpack the meaning of “synodality” which the pope has mentioned various times, and address key differences and similarities between this papacy as opposed to previous ones. They also remind us that while the pope is important, we must not become hyper focused on every single detail of the papacy. Snippet from the Show “I'm super cautiously optimistic about everything with Pope Leo. Everything he's written so far, I've been so excited about, the decisions that he's made so far, I've been very happy with. I'm excited to see what's going to happen here.” We want to hear from you!

An American and a Scotsman walk into a podcast studio . . . It's not just the start of an obscure joke; it's the start of this conversation about patriotism. Is it a sin? Is it biblical? How should Christians think through national patriotism in a way that still maintains their allegiance to God above all?
