That's right. Put away your cookies & baked goods. Get those spaghetti noodles away from that sauce. Chris & Matt are here to tell you about the death of fundraising, but also introduce you to fundraising much more effective child, supportraising! How would your ministry change if you were able to communicate your vision to benefactors who could directly enable it? This week, we talk about the importance of of dreaming big because our God is abundant.

PUMP UP THE JAM! PUMP IT UP! That's right! Every single person that listens to this episode and reads these show notes will get a free iPad Pro and $20,000 dollars!

Now, if we were to tell you that actually that's not true and instead we will pray a rosary, you might feel a bit deceived. Marketing your ministry is not about tricking people into attending your events. It's about showing people the fullness of life that God calls us all to live.

The cost of giving into the fears & insecurities that the evil one puts on us are grave. This week, Matt & Chris talk about how we "avoid the millstone." How do we position ourselves to act when God calls us to act in our lives & ministries.

Following Matt & Chris' attendance at the Dallas Ministry Conference, they felt it was necessary to talk about the limits of programming in ministry and how we all need to go further when we think about the needs of our ministries.

This week, Chris & Matt speak from their own weaknesses and insecurities to bring light into the need for prophetic accountability. We are called as a Church to love & build one another up, even when it is most difficult. But God empowers us by His love and His prophetic voice.

Too many times, our faith feels like it is constantly on defense. Unless we are in our comfort zone, we fear talking about what Jesus is doing for us out in the world. This week, Chris & Matt discuss the importance of going outside the building and putting our faith on the offensive, showing the love of God outside your parish walls.

This week, Matt & Chris try something a bit different. They discuss completely unrelated things in what they've decided is the first MLA Variety Show! This show mostly revolves around the "voluntolds" and Matt's dark sinful alter ego (not really, but he did see Deadpool 2).

Asking for help can be very difficult. Especially if you're supposed to be the leader of your program and/or ministry. But adversity and challenge is how we all grow, and helping others when they ask for help allows us to grow in our own talents and strengths. This week, Chris & Matt tackle the necessary humility in asking for help as ministry leaders and how God can transform us through it.
