I am recommending this book to every pastor I know. @gpackiam has written a much needed and incredible book for pastors and anyone who loves the church. It is so timely.

Hear @PeteGreig chatting all things prayer in this great podcast from Essential Church. xitter.cf/EssentialChurch/status…
New podcast with a dear friend and special guest, @PeteGreig. We talk about prayer, unity, and the Kingdom. This one is SO good. We hope you'll listen and share!

Wow - some great insights here! Thanks for sharing! Loving this podcast. xitter.cf/essentialchurch/status…
Beauty is a great way of thinking about how the Church can be at its best… a Rembrandt painting doesn’t explain itself to you… it has a way of communicating itself to you & drawing you into it. The Church needs to think about its own life that way.

NEW EPISODE! This is such a crucial conversation on how ministry has changed in our new cultural context... xitter.cf/essentialchurch/status…
"Today’s climate is such that all belief is contested, and so in one sense we’ve gone to a pre-Christian culture, and in another sense we’ve “evolved” past it… people want the Jesus values without the Jesus claim…"
How do we minister in a secular age?

In the collapse of the comfortable alliance between christianity and the culture at large, what kinds of opportunities is the Spirit presenting to the Church???
LISTEN TO THIS ONE xitter.cf/EssentialChurch/status…

Another fabulous episode from @theandrewarndt, @gpackiam, and @mrdanielgrothe! Take a listen and subscribe to @EssentialChurch if you haven’t done it yet! xitter.cf/essentialchurch/status…
As preachers, we need to realize that our sermon might be more Scripture than that person will hear all week long. If there’s any place where we can read lots of Scripture, it ought to be in church.
Part 2 of a conversation on the Bible is available now!

Such fun recording a new @EssentialChurch podcast with @mrdanielgrothe and @theandrewarndt on the cross— it’s significance for us, it’s themes and motifs, how it gets distorted, and how preachers can preach on it well...
The episode comes out next week...

If you “do church,” you owe it to yourself to listen to this podcast, particularly this episode. So rich in wisdom and insight:
“The Purpose of Sunday” by The Essential Church Podcast xitter.cf/essentialchurch/status…
"Mission, formation, and encounter are the three broad approaches to worship… I’m of the opinion that we are meant to hold all three of these together in tension…"
Listen in on a new conversation with @pastorbrady, @gpackiam, and @theandrewarndt.

"I have found that character, chemistry, and competency are a good litmus test for the people you are looking to hire…"
Join @pastorbrady, @theandrewarndt, @mrdanielgrothe, and @gpackiam for a conversation about hiring & firing in the local church.

If you are a faith leader listen to the @EssentialChurch podcast on mental health! I am so proud of @pastorbrady and the way he is leading in the conversation on mental health and suicide prevention. The faith community must lead the way! theessential.church/episode-…

I have grown as a leader mostly by the mistakes I've made, but also by the books I've read & conferences I've attended. I also grow by listening to podcasts of anointed leaders. Be sure to listen to podcast 9 & 10 of @EssentialChurch. xitter.cf/essentialchurch/status…
"The congregation sees how you treat each other. The first test of a pastor’s leadership is how he treats his team."

A really, really helpful and beautiful conversation about changing the culture of a local church so that it becomes a safe AND—more than that—an empowering place for women to lead and to flourish. xitter.cf/essentialchurch/status…
Special Episode! A conversation about #metoo, #churchtoo, and the church.
