Potomac Pastors Podcast

On this edition of the Potomac Pastors Podcast, we’ll be taking a look at something that we as pastors do a great deal of; it’s what the Bible calls, the “foolishness of preaching.” But just because we do it often, does that guarantee that we do it well? Again our host for this episode is Rick Johns, Pastor of the Olney Seventh-day Adventist Church in Olney, Maryland.

On this edition of the Potomac Pastors’ Podcast, we’ll be discussing a topic that not too many of us pastors may be familiar with, but yet it’s one that can aid us as leaders and change agents, to help make a difference not only in our lives, but in the lives of those in our churches and the communities that we’ve been called to serve. Our topic for today, The Pastor and Emotional Intelligence. What is it and what does it have to do with being an effective pastor? Again our host for this episode is Rick Johns, pastor of the Olney SDA Church in Olney MD.

On this edition of the Potomac Pastor's Podcast, we’ll be discussing a topic that is considered to be  controversial  to some and  extremely relevant to others... Politics and the Pulpit. What role if any should we as pastors and our congregations play in helping to shape the political landscape in today’s culture or should we as pastors simply be content to just stay in our lane? 

How can we as pastors ensure that we are providing effective ministry to the children in our congregations  if we don't have a pastor designated  specifically for this responsibility? And if we do, how can he or she serve them effectively especially in light of the pandemic?

How can pastors effectively and creatively help lead their congregations as they seek to  reach the planet for the kingdom of God in the midst of a global pandemic? In this episode Pastor Rick Johns explores this topic with two guests pastors as they seek to find answers that will not only inform but challenge  pastors and members alike.

The pandemic has changed everything about how we do ministry in church. What are some innovative ways pastors have adjusted to this new normal and as they continue to lead and nurture their congregations? 

How the does pastor take care of his own soul during these times of drastic change and national crisis? People are looking to spiritual leaders for encouragement, hope, and guidance. How do we make sure we have something to offer them in challenging times?
