We’re back in the studio for Episode 299, shaking off the summer sand and diving into all the ministry mayhem we missed while you were at camp, VBS, or just trying to survive without air conditioning.

In this episode:

• We share our best (and worst) Baptism Sunday strategies—what worked, what flopped, and how to keep the water warm and the volunteers sane.

• Frank gives us the inside scoop on Vision Sunday at Lakeview and the official launch of Cross & Crown Church, complete with a new logo and fresh t-shirts (soft cotton, obviously).

• Oh, and yes... there’s a real-life waffle stomp story. It’s exactly what you’re afraid it is.

As always, we’re bringing honest talk about life, ministry, and the strange things that happen the morning after.

Rate, review, share it with your worship pastor, and please—for the love of all that is holy—check the drain cover before you hop in the church baptismal.
