Is Instagram shaping church leadership more than we realize?
More and more church advice is coming from people with platforms — not necessarily people who share the same realities as most churches. What happens when the loudest voices represent the smallest slice of the Church?
In this episode, we talk honestly about how Instagram has become an exit ramp for church leaders, how “public figure” status quietly redefines authority, and why so much online advice feels disconnected from the day-to-day realities of the average church.
This isn’t about calling out individuals or vilifying large churches. It’s about asking better questions:
Who is the advice actually for?
Who is being helped?
And who might be unintentionally discouraged?
Most churches don’t have massive budgets, large staffs, or cutting-edge gear — and that doesn’t make them unhealthy or behind. It just means the conversation needs more context.
