One of the biggest hurdles that churches face is the revolving door regarding staffing. Statistics show that ministry leaders and pastors are switching jobs or leaving ministry altogether in large numbers.

Matt Steen of Chemistry Staffing works daily with churches and potential staff members to help churches have a healthy staff culture and ensure their next hire is excellent.

In this episode, Matt talks about the parts of the process you cannot skip when hiring, how to treat people well even when they aren't your choice, and why slowing down your process might be the best decision you make.

As always, let us know what you think!

In this week's episode, I'm sitting down with Rev. Dr. Brian Fraser. 

Brian has ministered with Presbyterian congregations in Ontario, served as the Dean of St. Andrew's Hall at the University of British Columbia, and professor of history at Vancouver School of Theology, and is the founder of Jazzthink. 

In this episode, Brian and I dig deep into what it means to be a disciple and ambassador of Christ and how to consider those terms practically when developing ideas for evangelism in today's cultural context.

In this episode, Mike sits down with John Borthwick.

John has been the minister at St. Andrew's Guelph for 17 years.  If you asked him about his ministry, he'd simply tell you that he feels called to the places where he believes Jesus would be found today.  His new project The Abbey, has already started shaping how churches look at hybrid ministries and other important topics of the day, so let's get into it!

Today I'm having a conversation with Leah Logan and Mark Willcock from Indwell.

Indwell is a faith-based non-profit that partners with churches and communities to create affordable housing that supports people seeking health, wellness and belonging. They've got a fantastic backstory, and if you're a church that wants to help support those without sustainable living or a church looking to move out of its building, then this episode is for you!

One area that churches are really struggling to become resourced in, and are starting to feel the pressure in the areas of mental health and suicide. So many pastors and elders don’t know where to turn for good resources and helpful advice. With that struggle in mind, we tried to do something that would help you out.

Today, I’m presenting to you my interview with Mark Stromenberg.  As someone who battles mental illness himself, Mark is passionate about communicating hope and help to the one-fifth of Canadians who will struggle with a mental illness and to those who have a friend or family member that is hurting. Through his own life, training, and professional experience, Mark seeks to bring the Light of Hope to those struggling with depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts in a holistic and practical way. Mark specializes in motivational speaking, leading educational workshops, and suicide intervention instruction. You’re going to love this conversation

In this episode, we're talking about how the experiences of Generation X shaped their view of the world, and the church, and one of the biggest gaps that the church has yet to overcome.

In this episode, we discuss the importance of not skipping ahead to the "fun parts" of growth without first making sure you lay a solid foundation. We've seen churches skip this step, and the results aren't good. Let us know what you think!
