Ray Hollenbach is an author, communicator, and pastor from Campbellsville, KY, and has written extensively about faith and culture for the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, ChurchLeaders.com, SermonCentral.com, Relevant Magazine, My Faith Radio, and Collide Magazine.   Ray earned a bachelor’s degree in communications from Illinois State University and a master's degree in theology from Campbellsville University, and is currently a lecturer in theology at Campbellsville University.  As an author, he has penned several books including Deeper Grace, a book designed to widen our understanding of grace from "salvation" to transformation, The Impossible Mentor, a book on the foundations of discipleship, and a small collection of very short stories addressing spiritual themes titled The Man with All the Answers (and other spiritual stories).   After pastoring for 15 years, he is now passionate about helping people and organizations navigate change, and working with church leaders to focus on spiritual formation to create church-wide cultures of discipleship.   In this episode of the podcast, Adam and Ray discuss Ray's journey in the discipleship movement of the 70s & 80s, to a Holy Spirit-inspired re-evaluation of his entire life, and back to a life radically surrendered to making disciples in the local church.
