On today's PoM podcast episode I sat down with Glenn Packiam, the Lead Pastor of Rockharbor Church in Costa Mesa, California. Glenn is the author of several books, including The Resilient Pastor, Blessed Broken Given, and today's topic, "What's A Christian Anyway?" The Church today has lost its way. We've pursued the wrong priorities, put our hope in personalities, and elevated popularity over spiritual maturity. And it's not just the Church that's lost; we are too. As culture wars rage and competing voices argue, many Christians are left asking a basic question, What's a Christian, anyway?To learn more visit: https://whatsachristiananyway.com/Register for our next 90 Days of Discipline: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/90-days-may-julyRegister for our 2025 Fall Men's Retreat: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/2025-mens-retreatRegister for Tribe XVI starting June 1st: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/tribe-xviThis podcast is sponsored by Dark Water Woodwork.

Pastoring has always been a vocation of great responsibility, yet the expectations placed on pastors today have grown increasingly complex. From preaching and shepherding to being organizational leaders, cultural commentators, and trauma-informed counselors, the demands can stack up, making the work feel impossible. Add to this the challenge of navigating a rapidly changing cultural and technological landscape, and it's no wonder so many pastors wrestle with questions of calling, capacity, and resilience. But amidst these challenges the ancient wisdom of the church and the gift of pastoral community offer a way forward. In this episode of The Pastorate, we sit down with Glenn Packiam, Lead Pastor of Rockharbor Church in Costa Mesa, California, to explore the depth and complexity of pastoral ministry in today's world. Glenn brings his unique perspective as a pastor, offering insights on how to remain grounded in the midst of ministry's ever-growing demands. Drawing from both his own experiences, Glenn unpacks practical strategies for navigating the weight of expectations placed on pastors, cultivating resilience through ancient spiritual practices, and fostering healthy team dynamics with a focus on self-awareness. Whether you're a seasoned leader or new to pastoral ministry, this conversation will encourage and equip you to lead with renewed clarity and grace. Our conversation with Glenn Packiam covers: The impossible expectations placed on pastors today and how to navigate them with grace. The timeless wisdom of the church, including the value of ancient practices like the prayer of Examen.  The power that self-awareness and healthy team has to sustain longevity in ministry.  We're thankful you've joined us on The Pastorate today, bless you as you listen.

In this episode of We Are Vineyard, Jay chats with Todd Proctor about the shaping effects of worship on his life, how the changing worship culture intersected with his discovery of the Vineyard, and his first experience with prophetic prayer ministry. Todd shares about the mentoring he received from Don Williams, and his belief that impactful relational moments are key for investing in the upcoming generation of leaders. Jay and Todd talk about their shared love of Alpha, some interesting things Todd is noticing happening through the ministry right now, and the surprising community impacts that churches are seeing as Alpha becomes part of their church culture. As Executive Vice President of Strategic Church Engagement, Todd Proctor has served on Alpha USA's leadership team for seven years. He is passionate about creating experiences and facilitating conversations that help key leaders reposition their communities for evangelistic impact in an increasingly post-Christian reality. Prior to joining Alpha, Todd founded Rockharbor Church in Costa Mesa, CA, where he served for 15 years as Lead Pastor. He experienced Alpha's impact firsthand, as Rockharbor became a pioneering hub church for the organization in the Southern California region. Todd watched as Alpha created a safe space for members to openly discuss matters of faith, as well address needed cultural shifts in the church in areas such as hospitality, relational evangelism and dependence on the Holy Spirit. A natural networker, Todd has had the opportunity to build bridges with leaders and communities across the nation. In collaboration with the Exponential Conference, Todd co-authored the book, “Empowered,” which offers pastoral perspectives on life and leadership in the Spirit. Todd received a bachelor's degree in Communication from Biola University, where he met his wife, Lisa. They have been married for almost 30 years, and have four children.

What is a mission? An assignment to be carried out to fulfill your purpose. I. What is God's mission for your life? (Hosea 6:6, Ephesians 1:5,11; Hebrews 11:6, 1 Corinthians 2:7) To love and please Him.II. How can you fulfill your life's mission? Surrender your life to Him (Gen. 18:19, Mt. 28:18-20, Ps. 37) Start living for God (Acts 20:24, 2 Corinthians 5:17-20) Consider joining in the mission of Viewpoint ChurchThe Mission of Viewpoint Church is to inspire and guide people of all ages to make a difference in their community and on their campuses by knowing God better and discovering His purpose for their lives.Brief History Viewpoint Church originated out of a small group of people who met every Friday evening for fellowship and Bible Study. There was a sense that God was calling the group to pray about planting a church in Newport Beach. ROCKHARBOR Church confirmed our call in January of 2013 and we began to ask others to join us. A group of about 30 students and adults began to organize and meet regularly. By summer, we met on the beaches of Balboa Peninsula for PRE-LAUNCH SERVICES for several months and then at ROCKHARBOR offices for six months. ROCKHARBOR officially commissioned Viewpoint Church on March 30, 2014. Our first official service (or the birthday of Viewpoint Church) was April 20, 2014 (Easter Sunday) at Old City Hall on Balboa Peninsula.Values BIBLE-BASED – Viewpoint is a church that will teach from the Bible and encourage all members to read through the Bible each year. We believe the Word of God is where we can learn and teach God's viewpoint on all aspects of life. Hebrews 4:12GOSPEL-CENTERED – Viewpoint believes that the Gospel is the message that will change culture. We are a church that is committed to regularly delivering the Good News in relevant and powerful ways. Mark 16:15FAMILY-FRIENDLY – One of the ways Viewpoint can change culture in a community that is over-committed is to offer a Sunday morning family service that lasts 1 ¼ hours that is geared for and includes students 8th grade and older. I Timothy 5:8SPORTS & ACTIVITY MINDED – Viewpoint enjoys and engages, as a church family, in the unlimited activities that our community offers; from the film festival, running clubs and through developing teams and hosting events that access the beach and its surroundings. Luke 2:52RECOVERY-SENSITIVE – Viewpoint is sensitive to the many men, women and students in our community and church who can benefit from a safe place to sustain their recovery from drugs, alcohol, etc. All church activities, meetings, events, or gatherings will be alcohol-free. Our leaders will also be asked to abstain from alcohol use in public. Parents will be asked to consider having alcohol-free homes during the years their students are under-age. II Corinthians 6:3, Romans 14:13PRAYER FOCUSED – Prayer is both a personal and corporate spiritual discipline that allows men, women and students to grow in their relationship with God. At Viewpoint, we value prayer and its power to change our lives and our community. I Thessalonians 5:16-18MISSION & MINISTRY MINDED – We believe that we are all ministers. We are each called to use our gifts, both in our church (ministry) and in the world (missions). Our goal is to develop leaders of all ages to love God, themselves and others in order to change culture for the next generation in the City of Newport Beach and throughout the world. Acts 1:8, II Tim. 3:16-17FUN – Joy is one of the fruits of the Holy Spirit. Laughter and fun should be a high value for all of us. Romans 15:13, Psalm 126:2, Ecclesiastes 3:4
