In this episode, we are talking with the pastoral staff and first elder of Miami Temple Seventh-day Adventist Church. This is the largest English-speaking Adventist church in Miami and also one of the oldest.
Miami Temple is one of those churches that many in the Miami area gravitate toward on a week when, for whatever reason, they don't want to go to their home church. Yet, Miami Temple has been, and still is, on a thorough transformational process that has empowered them to be on a journey to be the missional church God has called them to be.
We also have some exciting news to share. As most of you know, this podcast was born out of the inaugural Restore Conference held in January of 2016. The next conference will be January 30-31, 2017, at Forest City Spanish Seventh-day Adventist Church. We are finalizing our lineup of speakers and breakout sessions, but the speakers will include Ed Stetzer Ph.D.—a prolific author and well-known conference and seminar leader. You can register today at restorethemission.com and we look forward to seeing you there.

This month's episode is a candid panel discussion about some of the social issues that have dominated the news. Part of the goal of this particular episode, along with creating a space to have this conversation, is also to dialogue about how the Church should respond to what has been happening. As you listen, it will most likely evoke differentiating opinions. This is, in part, what this episode is about. We need to have these conversations and listen to each other as well.
The diverse panel consisted of the following pastors: Ivan Williams, Ministerial Secretary for the Adventist Church in North America; Tim Nichols, Florida Conference Vice President for Pastoral Ministries; Myron Edmonds, Pastor of Glenview Church in Cleveland, Ohio; Dustin Hall, Pastor of Southview Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota; and Nelson Fernandez, Pastor of two churches in the Greenville/Clemson region of South Carolina.
NOTES: We experienced technically difficulty approximately 10 minutes into the main discussion which lasted sporadically for five minutes. The recording is clear after that segment, so please press on through. Also, in the past couple episodes, we've concluded by asking guests a fun/lighthearted question, and we do finish this episode in such a manner. We hope you enjoy.

On today’s podcast, I have a conversation with Andy McDonald, senior pastor of Florida Hospital Church. He has been the pastor there for more than 30 years—something that is not often seen in our faith community; a pastor being in the same church for that length of time. We had a wonderful, lively conversation about when he first arrived in the early '80s and going all the way to present day and what that journey has looked like, not only for the church but also for him as the pastor through all these years. Thanks to Pastor Andy for taking the time to record and Chad for his help recording it.Send us a Text Message - include e-mail or phone number in your message to receive a response.
In Episode 4, we have a great conversation with Senior Pastor Dwight Nelson and Evangelism Pastor Rodlie Ortiz at Pioneer Memorial Church on the campus of Andrews University. We talk about what evangelism in the 21st century is and/or might look like. They also share an evangelistic project they are launching In October 2016. We hope this conversation will spark a continued discussion among those who listen about reaching people for Jesus in your current cultural context.

Recently, the North American Division of our Seventh-day Adventist denomination initiated a five-year plan called Plant1000. Along that line, Florida Conference is hosting the church planters boot camp at Camp Kulaqua the last weekend in April. In this episode, we have a great discussion on church planting with four pastors who are actively involved church planting in some form. Our prayer is that this episode will be a great conversation starter as well as be helpful in answering some questions regarding church planting.Send us a Text Message - include e-mail or phone number in your message to receive a response.
