Most churches spend weeks crafting job descriptions and reviewing résumés. Very few ask the right questions. Today, Thom and Jess argue that hiring mistakes in churches rarely come from a lack of talent. They come from overlooked questions—questions that reveal heart, alignment, resilience, and long-term fit. This is part one of a two-part conversation on 10 often overlooked questions every church should ask before hiring its next staff member. The post 10 Often Overlooked Questions Churches Should Ask Before Hiring Staff – Part 1 appeared first on Church Answers.
In part one, Thom and Jess focused on questions that reveal inner wiring and emotional maturity. In part two, the focus shifts to longevity, mission alignment, and team health. These questions don't just help you hire well. They help you avoid pain—for the church, the staff member, and their family.

A surprisingly high number of churchgoers attend because someone simply invited them. In this episode, Sam and Thom unpack why 60% might be the most overlooked and powerful number in church outreach today. This statistic comes from Grey Matter Research and Infinity Concepts, which recently asked more than 1,000 American evangelical Protestants about their church experiences.

Productivity is often seen as the holy grail of business success. Though organizations obsess over productivity gains, often they miss the fact that these gains come with a hidden cost.In this episode, Thom explores why healthy mission, creativity, and inner stillness are not distractions from productivity, but its deepest source.When work feels meaningful, participation becomes voluntary, effort becomes effortless, and productivity takes care of itself.Episode Highlights00:45 Productivity is an Illusion04:01 Making Participation Attractive06:23 Great Output Comes from Healthy Process10:17 The Four Aspects of Organizational Mission14:15 Make Everybody a Believer of the Mission18:48 The Role of Vedic Meditation in Organizational Productivity23:02 Q: Are Corporate Missions Manipulative?23:23 A: Use Your Discrimination Capability25:07 Q: How do we reconcile ease with being productive?25:23 A: Frictionless Flow Feels Effortless26:03 Q: Can we trade off being productive for stillness?26:46 A: Get corporate support or choose personal control31:26 Q: How can we remove the pressure to feel productive in life?32:01 A: I Get To...You can also watch this episode on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/plvJKA1k_zkUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

In 2006, "Simple Church" encouraged churches to streamline programming, clarify discipleship pathways, and focus on moving people toward spiritual maturity rather than filling calendars with activities. The book had a significant impact, shaping how thousands of pastors thought about ministry systems and structure. Nearly two decades later, Thom and Sam take a fresh look: What principles stood the test of time? What challenges emerged in practice? And how should churches apply "Simple Church" today in a ministry landscape that's more complex, digital, and post-pandemic than ever? The post Revisiting Simple Church: What Worked, What Didn’t appeared first on Church Answers.
Delayed gratification is often touted as one of the secrets to a fulfilling life. The famous marshmallow experiment concluded that children who were able to delay the reward of a marshmallow for a larger reward of more marshmallows had better outcomes later in life.But is this really the case? Are we actually better off favoring long-term good over short-term pleasure?In this episode, Thom explains that this is more than just a philosophical question, it's actually a question that has implications for evolution of the species.And the answer might surprise you…Episode Highlights00:45 It's All About Knowledge03:26 Evolution is Not a Straight Line07:41 We Have to Have a Blend12:07 There's No Such Thing as Perfection in the Relative World14:19 Disruption Causes Adaptation to Occur17:46 Q: What can you tell us about freeze reactivity?17:58 A: Catatonia is the Extreme20:38 Practice Vedic Meditation to Remove Irrelevant NeurochemistryYou can also watch this episode on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/B3a7BvY50TwUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

Consciousness is spoken of in many different ways and contexts. Usually when we speak of consciousness, we know the meaning that's being conveyed. But what exactly is consciousness?It's both a philosophical and scientific question at the same time. In this episode, Thom cuts through the philosophy to give us a pragmatic answer to the question. It's an answer that lets us get on with the business of being conscious with ever-increasing capacity.

Mei 2024. Roda JC en FC Groningen verwikkeld in een hevige promotiestrijd. Op speeldag 38 spelen de twee tegen elkaar in de Euroborg, maar een week daarvoor kan het al beslist worden. Roda wint thuis met 2-0 van Cambuur, terwijl Groningen op bezoek bij Telstar 1-0 achterstaat. Met die stand is Roda direct gepromoveerd naar de Eredivisie. Supporters rennen het veld op, maar de spelers blijven rustig, wetende dat de wedstrijd in Velsen-Zuid nog bezig is. Dan komt de gelijkmaker: Thom van Bergen kopt raak, 1-1. Groningen wordt gek, in Limburg slaat men de handen voor de ogen. Tot er ineens iets klinkt uit de speakers van het Parkstad Limburg Stadion. Stadionspeaker Wim Frijns kondigt de 2-1 aan van Telstar. Het veld wordt opnieuw bestormd door feestende supporters en spelers. Maar die 2-1 is nooit gevallen, de wedstrijd eindigt gewoon in 1-1. Totale chaos. Frijns pakt andermaal de microfoon: "Ik moet helaas mededelen dat het niet de 2-1 is geworden." Supporters vallen ter aarde, spelers worden van de schouders gehaald. Twee keer denken dat je er bent, twee keer van een koude kermis thuiskomen. En als je denkt dat Roda niet dieper kon zinken, vraag dan vooral niet wat er in de weken hierna gebeurde.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if a first-time guest experienced your church the way a customer experiences Amazon? No confusion. No friction. No wasted steps. Just clarity, care, and consistency.

Many are tired of online worship. What happened? When the pandemic forced churches online, digital worship seemed like the future. Congregations grew virtually, and pastors reached audiences they never imagined. But five years later, that momentum has faded. The church is discovering what technology can—and cannot—do for worship. On this episode, Thom and Sam explore why online engagement has declined and how churches can find balance between digital convenience and in-person community.

How do children really experience their parents' separation? In this episode, Thom explores why children are often far more adaptive to a family separation than adults assume, and how they unconsciously mirror the emotional state of their parents. Drawing on the Vedic worldview, Thom explains why change is evolutionary, why staying together “for the children” can be harmful, and how honoring the other parent protects a child's sense of self. A compassionate and clarifying perspective for any parent navigating relationship change.You can also watch this episode on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/YRsKT1togKwEpisode Highlights[00:45] Children Tend to be Peacekeepers[03:28] Involve a Third Party for the Child to Speak With[07:01] Protecting Children's Emotions[09:26] Don't Stay Together “For the Children”[12:57] Change is Evolutionary[15:18] Avoid Speaking Ill of Each Other[18:00] Honor the Other ParentUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/
Happy New Year, Christmas Fanatics! We're back with our first full episode of 2027! We hope everyone had a fantastic holiday season and squeezed every last bit of joy out of it because wow, did it fly by! In this episode, Julia and Anthony are flying without Thom. After catching up on the holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, and the movies they've watched lately, they reluctantly dive into 2025's "A Winnie the Pooh Christmas". Just how bad can a "Winnie the Pooh" holiday special be? Unfortunately pretty rough. So rough, in fact, that discussion about it doesn't even take up half of the episode. To cleanse the palate with something they actually love, Julia and Anthony then spend the bulk of this one breaking down and reacting to the "Stranger Things" finale! Fair warning: spoilers abound, so proceed with caution if you're not caught up! So get comfy, unwind, and let us bring a little extra holiday cheer to your Monday to help chase away those post-holiday blues. And don't worry—we'll be right here with you all year long, counting down the days to Christmas 2026. Trust us, it'll be here before you know it. As always, thank you all so much for the love and support! We couldn't do this without you!

Church attendance is both a helpful tool and a potential trap. Numbers can reveal momentum, but they can also distort priorities if leaders focus on counting heads instead of making disciples.

Are events in life symbolic, or are they simply expressive moments within a vast, intelligent universe? We humans love to make meaning of things, especially unusual events or mysterious dreams. Are we justified in doing so, or are we possibly distracting ourselves from what's really going on around us.
