In this final episode, our guest host, John Simons, interviews Pastor Jeff, as we celebrate and draw to a close the MLN podcast. Pastor Jeff discusses all that he's learned through the 6+ years of recording the podcast, the importance of building relationships with many of the guests, and how to keep growing as a leader. As a senior pastor, there is no shortage of leadership opportunities and the stress that can follow it. Yet, God is always there to take refuge in and learn by being in the Word.

In this month's episode, Pastor Jeff sits down with Patrick Holcombe to expand on his section of the Versus 'Lead' curriculum, Where Are You Called to Lead? As a successful business owner, Patrick has had the opportunity to lead in his workplace, but he also speaks to being a spiritual leader in all facets of life! 

In this month's episode, Pastor Jeff sits down with 'Captain Canada' Ryan Smyth to discuss last nights Versus Conference and his amazing story. From growing up in Canada, to his time in the NHL and his families recent relocation to the Nashville area, Ryan is the epitome of giving your success over to the Lord. 

Growing up, Ryan was always a talented athlete, but he knew something was missing. As he shared last night at Versus, the void of Jesus led to a lot of brokeness. Ryan put his life and worth in his identity as a hockey player, and at times forgot his identity in Christ. This episode is his story of transformation and leaving a Jesus centered legacy. 

As men, our tendency is to walk through life in isolation. Work, busyness, and home responsibilities can get in the way and cause us to neglect one of our most important needs: each other.

At Versus, our goal is for all men to do life together. That's why our motto is Don't Go Alone! 

In this month’s episode, Pastor Jeff sits down with Nic Allen, Rolling Hills’ Nashville Campus Pastor. They dive into the topic of tragedy, and how we, as Christians, should respond to it. In lieu of last week's events at Covenant School in Nashville, Pastor Jeff felt the need to address such an important topic. Today, Good Friday, is a day Christians recognize as the darkest day in history. However, sharing the hope we have in Jesus in a dark and broken world is our number one goal. Sunday is coming! 

One super helpful tool included in this month’s podcast is a step-by-step plan for tragedy response. The guys talk about how important it is to properly disclose hard-to-share information based on age and maturity level. As men, our families will respond to future tragedies by how we lead now. No matter what, we should all be ready to step forward and shout from the rooftops, “God is still sovereign!” You do not want to miss this incredible episode! 

In this month's episode, Pastor Jeff sits down with Bob Ravener, successful businessman and author of his new book, Up! The Difference in Today and Tomorrow is You. Bob has worked in some of the worlds most notable and successful businesses: Starbucks, Home Depot, Pepsi Co., and Dollar General, and he has so much wisdom on life, struggles and facing adversity

Growing up, Bob faced an unthinkable number of challenges. From having two alcoholic parents and being one of five siblings, Bob had to grow up fast. At 15, they lost their home and all had to separate and live with friends. A few years later, the Naval Academy accepted Bob, propelling him forward to his successful business career. As you can tell, Bob has a story you wont want to miss! 

Today’s episode features a wonderful conversation with John Simons, the new Men's & Sports Pastor at Rolling Hills! John comes to us from Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, CA where he previously oversaw Men's and Community groups. John is passionate about helping men grow in spiritual maturity/leadership and excited to work hands on with the Versus Conference and creating a disciple-making culture with the men of Rolling Hills. 

John is a big believer in the fact that if you reach the man, you eventually get the whole family. In this episode, John talks about how he plans to help move Rolling Hills men toward better spiritual leadership in their homes, workplace, and community.
