Gleaning Mustard Seeds with Jerrie Barber episodes:

December 29, 2025Kirby Walker and conflict management
Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie
What happens when a workplace conflict gets so intense that the boss finally brings in a psychologist—and why does that psychologist’s plan begin with something as simple as buying lunch?
How can a $2,000 conversation solve a problem that months of tension and frustration couldn’t fix?
And what if the key to restoring peace in an office—or a family, or a church—is hidden in one courageous step that most of us never take?
In today’s episode, you’ll hear why the employees in a Mississippi dental office burst into tears when they finally heard the path forward… and how their story reveals a leadership principle so practical—and so powerful—that it mirrors the steps Jesus outlined 2,000 years ago.
This is the story Dr. Kirby Walker told me more than a decade ago, and I’ve repeated it many times because it continues to teach, challenge, and remind us what genuine conflict resolution really requires.

December 15, 2025 Vaccine for the conflict virus — 2
Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie
This is the second in a series of two episodes on gossip and conflict. If you haven't heard episode 76, start there.

Have you ever wondered why gossip spreads so easily—and why it’s so hard to stop once it starts?

What if the key to ending conflict in your church, family, or workplace is as simple as refusing to add one more stick of wood to the fire?

Imagine what could happen if every believer took a personal stand to be vaccinated against the gossip virus—starting with you and me.

December 08, 2025 Vaccine for the conflict virus — 1
Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie
Should every Christian and every church get vaccinated for the conflict virus?

The virus I’m talking about doesn’t attack the body—it infects relationships.

It spreads quietly, destroys trust, and divides churches.

Its name? Gossip.

Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie
Most of us avoid talking about death—or about leaving a ministry—until we’re forced to. But what if preparing for both could bring peace instead of panic?
In this episode, I’ll share lessons from planning my own funeral and my own exit from full-time preaching—practical ways preachers and elders can prepare for the next chapter.

November 17, 2025We're NOT getting a new preacher (church)
Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie
Moving to a new church and getting a new preacher is an exciting time. Many are convinced this’ll solve all the problems they've ever had, and everyone will live happily ever after.
What if your “new” preacher—or your “new” church—comes with more miles and hidden dents than you realize?
Do you know where to get a reliable “PREACHERFAX” or “CHURCHFAX” before making a move?
How can you tell the difference between normal wear-and-tear and severe damage that’ll break down later?
Is it wiser to trade for something “new,” or repair and restore the preacher or church you already have?
When Paul says we are new creations in Christ, how does that truth reshape the way we look at used preachers and used churches?

November 10, 2025 I want the church to grow, but . . . those people?
Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie
I say I want the church to grow—but often what I mean is only with people like me.
Jesus said His kingdom would start small and grow beyond expectation, yet when growth brings people who unsettle me, I face the the diﬀerence between what I want and what God wants.
The real question is: Do I want the church to grow, or just to grow my way?

October 27, 2025 Considering becoming an elder
Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie
What really prepares a man to be an elder?

Is it years of church, attendance, a successful business career, or a heart shaped by conflict, prayer, and growth?

When someone accepts the call to shepherd God's people, how do they know if the congregation actually wants them to serve, and how do they avoid simply becoming a senior deacon?

In this episode, I share a recent conversation with a brother wrestling with these questions, and together we explore the realities, frustrations, and opportunities of serving as an elder in the church.
