Ep 079: Church Collaboration and Killing Consumerism in a Post-Christian Context, with Dan Nichols

Jun 20, 2024
49:45

Pastoring in a post-Christian context is different. The more counter-cultural our faith becomes, the more important it is to understand that Christian consumerism is deadly and church cooperation is essential.

Karl Vaters talks with Dan Nichols about these subjects, including:

  • Negotiating a cultural shift in a longstanding church
  • Partnering with other churches
  • Bridging the big/small church divide
  • And more

Dan Nichols is the pastor of Grace Christian Fellowship in Cortland NY, and the founder of Northeast Collaborative.

Karl Vaters talks with Dan Nichols about Creating a Spirit of Generosity in a Local Church. Dan’s church takes an offering every year that they give away in its entirety to ministries outside their church. This year it will go to nine other local churches that they work alongside.

Karl and Dan talk about how that kind of generosity happens, and what a pastor can do to start moving a church away from fear and toward being outrageously generous.
