In this episode, I'm joined by Reno, Nevada church planter Eric Tastet. As he looks back on his church planting experience, and contrasts it with a revitalization project he did subsequently in Ohio, he talks about some of his early struggles and how he wishes he had had a sending church or agency, rather than just striking out alone.

At minute [3:50] I mention Thom Rainer's book Who Moved My Pulpit?: Leading Change in the Church.*

At minute [45:59] I reference Building Your Church from the Ground Up* by Mike Mutchler.

At minute [1:04:25] Eric recommends a few books: The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure* by Greg Lukianoff, Talking to Strangers: What We Should Know about the People We Don't Know* by Malcolm Gladwell, and 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos* by Jordan B. Peterson.

And at minute [1:11:35] Eric mentions his own podcast, The Tax Free Crypto Podcast.
