This podcast episode features Pastor Wayne Bray, Dallas Wilson, and new Greenville campus pastor Hayden Crompton discussing the soft launch of Upstate Church's Greenville campus and their ministry philosophy. The conversation centers around 1 Corinthians 2:1-5, where Paul emphasizes preaching Christ crucified rather than impressive speech or wisdom. The pastors explain how this passage shapes their approach to ministry - prioritizing the message of Jesus over the messenger delivering it. They discuss the importance of decentralizing personality in ministry, rotating preachers across campuses, and building a team-based approach rather than focusing on individual pastors. The episode also covers the strategic importance of planting a church in downtown Greenville and how their ministry philosophy helps with both mission advancement and pastoral sanctification.
