The Hacka Podcast

Life is full of distractions but you have a lot more control over them than you realise. In today's episode we look at what distractions really are, how we can overcome them as Christians, and what we need to focus on to live a life filled with purpose.

This is the closing word from Shawn Stickler in Episode 70.

Today we were blessed to have a dynamic conversation with Shawn Stickler where we discussed his life and what ministry looks like pre- and post-pandemic. He is the Pastor of The Pentecostals of Quinte in Ontario, Canada and has great insight on leadership and church growth.

This is an informal, monthly conversation with Mike Hackathorn, the other contributor of the Hacka Blog, where we will be discussing wide-ranging topics. Today we are talking about the Holy Spirit - why we need to receive the Holy Spirit, what is the sign that you have received it, how it can change your life, and much more.

Join us this week as we celebrate one year of the Hacka Podcast! In this episode, we remember the past, take stock of what the podcast has become, and talk about our future plans.

Thank you for all your support for the past 52 weeks. Thank you for every review, comment, like, and share. Thank you for taking time out of your day to listen to the podcast and allowing us to become a part of your lives every week.

We are excited for what God has already done through the podcast and we look forward to what He is going to do in the weeks and months ahead.

This is a special ‘audio only’ bonus episode. Last weekend I (Greg) was blessed to be able to speak at our Ministers and Leaders Retreat here in Australia about Effective Digital Ministry. Due to technical issues, we were only able to record about 45 minutes of the one hour session but I still wanted to share what we were able to record with you all because I believe it will be helpful for those who are working with online content at their local church. Here is a link to my notes for this session along with my visual presentation - https://www.dropbox.com/sh/y3vbdjzt9mripyg/AADRtCacSdsdKu2201wb65Oga?dl=0
