The newspaper is full of the Adam Selwood tragedy and the Eagles win and the value of a ‘mental health round'. Everyone knows a hashtag or a football round might make us feel a bit better but the issue is way deeper than that. Asking RUOK? is a touch better but way more needs to be done.. Research into what works and what to do when some things don't work.. Answers -- practical, science based, proven strategies Healing stories, not just problem stories. Too many mental health talks are on the problem and the problem stories, and not enough on the stories of transformation and healing.. Topics to teach, train, coach and mentor people of all ages in: Destigmatisation Resilience building Mindfulness training Internal and external ecosystem management Etc etc The recent podcast I did with @Bryn Edwards, where he said ‘this is not a mental health crisis, it's an emotional health crisis' The acknowledgment, expression and processing of emotions' From an NLP point of view - state management.. Dr Peter Symons and his book Brain-Fuel Depletion and the recent seminar I MC'ed with Peter and Dr Clyde Jumeaux plus the many calls and discussions I have had with old mate and long-term mental health researcher and advocate Neil Cole and our great work with BlokesTalk BeachSide and the work with Paul Litwin and Mens Talk AU shows how men in particular need to feel OK about talking to someone about how they feel on the inside.. In a recent conversation with a past client who is involved heavily with Veterans and PTSD.. as he says, 'asking RUOK is not the Question.. asking on a scale of 0 to 10 how are you feeling?' is a far better question.. If you are under 5... let's talk about it.. We go into much further detail in this podcast including the structured Holistic Psychosocial Lifestyle Audit & Action Plan based on Rapoport's lifestyle dimensions—Family, Work, and Leisure—with integrated areas including Emotional Intelligence, Rumination, Stress Load, and Internal Chemistry.

But more than that, Neil is a trusted friend and mentor who has spoken into Jessie's life for over a decade. Together, they dive into the heart of discipleship, exploring why the early church thrived without curriculum, steps, or instructions—simply by connecting directly with Jesus. Neil challenges us to strip away the complexities we've added to discipleship and return to the raw, life-changing relationship with Christ that transforms from the inside out. They discuss how to introduce others to Jesus in authentic ways, how to navigate church hurt, and why it's time to take bold, risky steps in our faith.The Ordinary Discipleship podcast with Jesse Cruickshank and the Whoology team is a journey through the fascinating intersection of neuroscience and narrative to ignite the disciplemaker in you.

In this episode, Neil Cole explores spiritual formation and missionary methods through a discussion of Paul's journeys in the book of Acts. He shares insights from his book "Journeys" about Paul's progression and growth through each journey of his life and ministry, as well as lessons learned during a 13-year period of silence. Neil applies Paul's model to our own spiritual journeys and finishing well. We also talk shifting from institutions to more organic, relational ministry and hearing God's voice to radically obey his commands. So join us as we dive into the book of Acts, look at Paul's journeys, and see what it has to do with our own life's journeys and spiritual formation. Neil Cole is an author, missional thinker, and movement catalyst. His whole work can be summed up in this: listen to Jesus and do what He says. Neil's latest book and the focus of our conversation today is Journeys: Discovering God's Paths of Spiritual Formation Building to a Strong Finish.

In this fourth and final podcast built on the Neil Cole interview we watch Paul as he matures over five journeys—this is about spiritual formation and missional results.While the first missionary journey finds him leaving churches without much leadership, the second reflects the importance of raising leaders from the harvest. On the third trip, he explodes with effectiveness as he stays in one place, teaching daily in the school of Tyrannus—archaeology reveals 20 churches in Asia Minor that could trace roots to Paul in Ephesus. Few recognize the fourth journey as a missionary outing, but it was in chains that he spoke to men and women of great influence. He changed the course of human history through his efforts under house arrest in Rome.The fifth journey is after the first imprisonment and at its conclusion in death.Apparently, just prior to execution, he wrote to Timothy, “You then, my son in faith, be strengthened by the grace that is in Christ Jesus, and what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also.” While we treasure those words, we seldom think of arrest and final imprisonment as an afterglow to a life well lived. We talked about how spiritual formation can be simultaneously jarring and positive. This was an apt conclusion to a great interview. Neil is accessible and willing to connect. You could hookup via social media or neilcole@aol.com.
This third portion of the Neil Cole interview will cause you pain. He starts with his early life and then deep dives into a time when God put him on a shelf with no ministry outlet. Ignored by churches, he couldn't even get a job at Walmart. Neil finally found income as a driver for Lyft and Uber. That, along with his wife's salary as a teacher in a public school system, met their needs. What painfully amazed me was his heart for God during those dark days. Where I would have reacted in anger, he did so with hope and even joy.Eventually, we got into a fruitful discussion about getting our “stuff” from the Holy Spirit rather than copying others. The upshot is that even Paul modeled his teaching after Stephen during his first journey but grew past imitation in later years. Neil is accessible and willing to connect. You could hookup via social media or neilcole@aol.com.
On today's episode Cynthia talks with Neil Cole about APEST (Apostle, Pastor, Evangelist, Shepherd, Teacher) and how these five gifts work together in movements. Falling into this in their team, kind of by accident, they realized the power of seeing each of these function as we plant churches and multiply disciples. Neil's books are available on Amazon.com.
In part two of my interview with Neil Cole, we get into the guts of rapid church growth through the multiplication of tiny disciplemaking entities.Neil begins to unpack his desert years where he went from life as a prolific author and speaker to absolute zero. The wonder of this is how God used that time to prepare him for an explosion of ministry in the current stage of his life. One product of life in the desert is an update and upgrade of a previous book he wrote called Journeys. The new title is Journeys: Discovering God's Paths of Spiritual Formation Building to a Strong Finish. I recently discovered that it launched at the top of Amazon's sales category for Christian leadership.Better than that discovery, I've been reading it along with my morning devotions. I've found new courage and made several decisions as a result. The power in the book is the synthesis of Paul's five journeys in Acts with various statements he made in the epistles. This is history unfolded and it deeply impacted how I see myself at the current stage of my life.Neil is accessible and willing to connect. You could hookup via social media or neilcole@aol.com.
Neil is one of my favorite people, and how we met is one of my favorite stories.He had followed me to four cities where I was teaching the same material—I thought he was a stalker until he told me what he was up to.He brought his team to that last seminar believing in what I taught, but “…your numbers are wrong!” After sharing lunch with his dozen friends, I was convinced that my numbers were wrong. You'll need to listen to the podcast to understand the numbers thing.In this episode, we discuss everything from rapid multiplication to “adolescent rebellion” amongst disciples (Paul experienced this, too). We get into the stuff Neil wrote in those early years and how today he's discovering people doing what he wrote in places like Kazakhstan, Uzbekistanand even India. The story is humorous in that those people have invited Neil into their countries, not knowing that he generated the tools they've been using to make disciples. Neil is accessible and willing to connect. You could hookup via social media or neilcole@aol.com.
Guest speaker Neil Cole speaks about Paul's teaching on discipleship.

This convo, right here, may be one of my favorite podcasts we've done to date. Years ago “Church 3.0,” a book by Neil Cole, was heavily influential in my life. Understand, Neil didn't write the book in a digital context. When he wrote “Church 3.0,” very few people were doing anything in the digital ministry space. But when I read this book back in the early 2010s, all I could think about is how some of these practices could exist digitally. So, similar to our recent conversation with Leonard Sweet, I loved this opportunity to sit down with Neil Cole and talk to him about Digital Church. Mind you, we're taking Neil's ideas into a whole new realm, but I counted it a pleasure to talk with another pioneer in a unique space. We delved into it in the conversation, but Neil was a decade or two before his time! As many contemporaries today are praised for their work in micro church areas, Neil was criticized for his work in the space (and, to be honest, I can relate to that). We even brought into the convo Jason Morris, who arguably is the smartest man in all of digital ministry, who was also influenced strongly by Neil's book...So, looking for a conversation involving three out-of-the-box thinkers about a micro/digital approach to church, where we also talk about the turmoil of pioneering in church space?

Hello again, all! This week on Pastor to Pioneer, Britton hears from Megan and Zach Duke, who share some of their story of going from super extra—the largest Southern Baptist church in the world—to extra small—stepping into the simple church movement. After several years in the megachurch universe, they returned to Zach's hometown in Indiana, intent on trimming back and simplifying things. Megan and Zach open up about some of the mistakes they made and things they learned as initially, many of the groups they started quickly died just as fast. The Dukes talk about learning to focus on being with people, on helping them walk through life and grow into healthy and mature disciples, and letting those disciples go with that example in order to then do the same—to multiply. Finally, Megan and Zach discuss the amazing Kingdom expansion they have seen as a decentralized network of simple churches has sprung up in the Indianapolis area and catalyzed similar growth around the world. @megandukemusic @zkduke Book recommendation from Zach - Primal Fire by Neil Cole

Neil is a longtime friend. We first met when he showed up for the same microchurch seminar I was teaching for the fourth time. When I asked him why he came to the same thing in four cities he introduced me to his team. They were soaking in the ideas (relatively foreign to the church at the time) of organic relationships in microchurches within a congregation—with productive leaders moving ahead to plant autonomous churches. Neil travels around the world sowing the seeds of God's kingdom, catalyzing the development of organic church networks and coaching leaders. He has been married for over 40 years to Dana and has three adult children and three grandsons.If you want to know more you can email him (he gives his address in Part 2), catch him on Facebook, Twitter or YouTube.

Today we're talking about another part of freedom, and that's the idea of identity. And this ties in closely with last week's episode. You have two choices in life: You can see yourself as a son or daughter of God. Or you can see yourself as an orphan. And it matters greatly how you see yourself. Because if the enemy or the world can convince us that we're something other than what God says we are, we will never make it. And Satan will try and attack us either by casting doubt on the nature of God or by dismantling our sense of our own identity. Join me today as we discuss . . . . 1. Who are you . . . really? 2. How the Lord helped me sort this out for myself 3. Several important truths about how God created you from Psalm 139 4. The hope of re-creation in Christ. 5. The contrast between seeing ourselves as slaves and seeing ourselves as sons/daughters. 6. Important insights from the story of the Prodigal Son. 7. Four important truths about your new identity as an adopted son or daughter of God. ____________________________________ As always, we'd appreciate it if you'd tell others about the podcast.

In this episode, Keith shares how he made a deal with God as a 1st grader to become a pastor if God saved his parent's marriage, the unhealthy assumptions some make about gifts/talents, and of how after years of serving in a church his biggest spiritual epiphany was that he had misunderstood the gospel. Keith would like to offer you a gift of his [FREE] eBook, "This Is My Body:Ekklesia As God Intended" but FYI, he's in the process of republishing this book with a new title, new expanded content [about 50 extra pages] and a new Foreword by Neil Cole. The new revised/updated version will be called "Jesus Unveiled: Forsaking Church As We Know It To Reclaim Community As God Intended". To get your hands on this book and other great content by Keith, connect with him at www.KeithGiles.com , or on Facebook and Twitter .

Danny once again welcomes Coyle Neal from the City of Man Podcast to discuss that wiggly, squishy, zany concept of “Authenticity.” Learn about Jonathan Edwards and his concept of authenticity and the use and abuse of external standards. Was Emerson “the great villain?” Can you be “spiritual but not religious?” What does Sheryl Sandberg actually believe? Have postmodernists rediscovered truth in the Age of Trump? Lionel Trilling, Sincerity and Authenticity. Authenticity as performance. Is the House Church movement suffering from Authenticity overload? Coyle authentically begs listeners to write their prayers down. Authenticity that undermines art. Danny mangles Walter Benjamin. Stephen King's writing advice and art. Danny can't distinguish Foucault from Barthes. Donald Trump as the perfect embodiment of Authenticity. Obama versus Hillary: writer throw-down. What is the moral cost of insincerity? The fakeness of talk radio and the American media. All this and much more!
