Welcome to the Cultiv8ing Ministry Podcast. There has been a pile of discussion in our world recently around Cracker Barrel and their change in logo and appearance and ultimately a return back to the originals. That hubbub got us to thinking, what can we as ministry leaders learn from Cracker Barrel. So this week we discuss the importance of knowing your audience. Why is that important? How can we be sure we have a clear understanding of our audience and much more is discussed this week. WE end the pod as always with a random fact of the week, this week talking about those Buddha statues that we often see out and about.

Welcome to the Cultiv8ing Ministry Podcast. In this week's episode of the podcast we contrast two different ways to lead. In the book Lead Like Jesus, the authors use two different acrostics for E.G.O. We dive into the differences between Edging God Out and Exalting God Only. What are the differences, and what does it look like when leaders lead from each of those worldviews? We dive into those questions and more and wrap up with a random fact of the week about calling shotgun.

Welcome to the Cultiv8ing Ministry Podcast. We live in a culture that wears busyness as a badge of honor. The church has fallen prey to "busy culture" as well, with church calendars full of activities throughout each week. However, it can feel to ministry leaders like participants often place a higher priority on other aspects of their lives over faith development. How can leaders combat this reality? Do we embrace it or fight it? What causes this current reality? We tackle these and other questions before getting to our random fact of the week about octopus.
