  • From my Vantage Point: To those in the wilderness-A new season, a fresh encouragement
    "You are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation. A people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who called you out of darkness into marvelous light. Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy."-1 Peter 2:9-10
    A reminder. An encouragement. A prayer and blessing. A new season.

  • There is always more room at the table: Hospitality and Lacy Pollock

    "Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling."-1 Peter 4:9

    Hospitality is more than a friendly handshake and even a warm cookie. Hospitality is a calling and if we are honest, maybe something that very few of us are really good at. Lacy Pollock joins us again to kickoff our 2022 season with an impactful and insightful look at how true hospitality is really about ministry.

  • What do we do with Deborah? Women's Leadership Roles in the Church. A Discussion with Lacy Pollock
    When the disciples returned from getting food and found Jesus speaking to a woman by a well, the book of John says they marveled at Him. Why? Because in that day and age most Jewish Rabbis wouldn't have been caught speaking to a woman in a public place. But of course, this is just another example of Jesus showing us the way. Depending on your faith tradition or denomination growing up, your belief of a woman's position of leadership in the church may vary. But as we scan the pages of scripture, names like Lydia, Deborah, Esther and Priscilla give us examples of strong female leadership that we must not overlook.
    In this discussion with Lacy Pollock, we dive into this topic of woman's leadership roles in the church. Lacy is a teacher and leader in the Vineyard Church, Circleville, Ohio but is also a great friend and passionate believer in the power of the Gospel. Hold on!

  • Stepping on the Gas: A continued conversation with Ron Van Horn and Luke Pollock
    In Episode 15 we were introduced to Ron Van Horn, a misfit minister loving and serving the people in Circleville Ohio. In our last discussion we teased a little about a new mobile ministry they were starting--Grounds for Recovery. Last week, Ron and Luke and the team got on the road and made their first appearance. Grounds for Recovery was started with the intent to help people in active recovery fight to get their lives back.

  • From my Vantage Point: Celebrity or Influence?
    Celebrity influence in our culture today is seen as a virtue, something to be admired or even desired and copied. Celebrity influence can have tremendous positive transformational benefits for Kingdom work but if not paid careful and prayerful attention to, celebrity can soon take the place of influence. (Romans 12:2, Matthew 28 & John 3:30).

  • Prepare to be Uncomfortable: A Fly on the Wall Conversation about Division and Unity

    "We need to keep our eyes on the mission and realize that we need each other if we are going to pull this off."-Francis Chan (Until Unity)

    On occasion, Luke Pollock and I jump on an evening phone call that inevitably turns into a 1 or even 2 hour deep dive into a host of ministry topics. On this particular call, we decided to turn on the microphone to just capture the essence of what our discussions normally sound like. So we invite you to be a "fly on the wall" and join us for this candid--and even somewhat uncomfortable-conversation about division and unity in American Christianity and the church.
