Building Your Team

Footstep Ministry Podcasts ·

2025/09/08

Building a team doesn’t have to be complicated. In fact, I like to think of it as a simple formula: identify, enlist, train, commission, and encourage.

Avoiding Burnout

Footstep Ministry Podcasts ·

2025/09/08

I am so excited to jump into our topic today because it’s something that impacts every single one of us who has the privilege of leading a team of volunteers. We're going to talk about something super important: how to empower your team to serve with passion and purpose without them running on empty. That's right, we are tackling the topic of volunteer burnout from a leader's perspective.

Broken Heroes: The People Ask For A King

Footstep Ministry Podcasts ·

2025/08/04

Have you ever wished for something, only to realize later it wasn’t what you truly needed? The stories of King Midas and Israel’s demand for a king remind us that what we want isn’t always what we need. But the good news is, God’s plans for us are always better than we could imagine.

Broken Heroes: Samson

Footstep Ministry Podcasts ·

2025/08/01

Samson’s story is one of strength, failure, redemption, and ultimately, God’s purpose. But let me say this upfront: Samson’s greatest enemy wasn’t the Philistines. No, Samson’s greatest enemy was himself. And isn’t that true for so many of us? The problem isn’t that God lacks the power to do great things in our lives. The problem is that, all too often, we are our own worst enemy.

Three Pillars--Introduction

Footstep Ministry Podcasts ·

2025/07/21

If the church is the divinely established vehicle of kingdom ministry, then what kind of church am I willing to throw my life into?What does a post-pandemic, sustainable model of the church look like for this generation?How do we expand the boundaries of God’s work beyond our traditions, predilection, and mores and embrace an “incarnational missionary outpost” mindset that looks like a Luke 15 lost sheep search and rescue operation?

Three Pillars--Chapter 10: Final Word

Footstep Ministry Podcasts ·

2025/07/21

Is God calling you to do something new and impossible? Is He challenging you to see your current ministry with fresh eyes? Is He giving you the vision to lead or launch a new ministry? Or is He showing you bold new directions in the place you now serve? As you wrestle with these questions, the pathway forward will begin to come into focus. I pray that this chapter will help you move from your comfort zone into His sweet spot.

Three Pillars--Chapter 8: Knit Together

Footstep Ministry Podcasts ·

2025/07/21

The thought of merely compelling people to pray the sinner’s prayer and educate them in spiritual matters was incomplete. Spiritual formation can only take place in the context of ongoing-redemptive-life-giving relationships. This is the core principle upon which every cell, congregation, and celebration should function.

Three Pillars--Chapter 5: Three Pivots

Footstep Ministry Podcasts ·

2025/07/21

If we are to build a church on the Three C’s, we must shift from pastor-centric to people-centric, from building focused to people focused, and from attractional to incarnational.

Three Pillars--Chapter 4: The DNA of a 3C Model

Footstep Ministry Podcasts ·

2025/07/21

Each church has its own DNA. It’s its own blueprint, or a fingerprint, if you will. If you look closely at its blueprint, you can tell many things about a local church. Launching a cell-based congregation requires that we start with the most fundamental attributes and ensure these become part of the DNA of every group.

Three Pillars--Chapter 1: Counting What Counts &...

Footstep Ministry Podcasts ·

2025/07/21

I was learning that only some things that count can be counted, and not everything that is counted counts. Were people coming to know Christ? Yes! Were they being nurtured in their faith? Yes! Was mentoring and discipleship taking place? Yes. Were they reaching others with the Gospel? Yes! Were they serving others? Definitely! Were they coming to church at 10:00 a.m. for worship? Well, no. But that was no longer important. What counted were the deep redemptive friendships being formed. What
