Aaron Niequist is a liturgist and writer, in New York City. After leading worship at Mars Hill Church (Grand Rapids, MI) and Willow Creek Church (Barrington, IL), Aaron created A New Liturgy - a collection of modern liturgical worship recordings. Shortly after, he started a discipleship-focused, formational, ecumenical, practice-based community at Willow Creek called The Practice. In 2018, Aaron wrote a book about a practice-based faith called The Eternal Current: How a Practice-Based Faith Can Save Us from Drowning.

In honor of our November Gatherings, today's episode features Jordan Farris, who spoke at our November 2018 Gatherings! His talk was all about time management, and we believe it is practical and helpful in every way!

Our friend, Kyle Scheele joins the podcast to update us on his latest creative endeavor! Kyle is an author, speaker, and cardboarder who has challenged tens of thousands of students across the nation to build a better world. When he’s not on a plane or a stage, Kyle is at home in Springfield, MO, where he lives with his beautiful wife Lindsay and their four crazy kids. He’s still not sure how he ended up with such an incredible family, but he’s trying to lay low in case this whole thing was some sort of mistake. Kyle’s latest project is the Viking Funeral, and we discuss how everyone can be a part of the project!
