The Small Church Ministry Podcast 195: "We’ve Always Done It This Way." The Small Church Lie That Keeps Us Stuck | with Ebonie Mukasa
Tradition can be beautiful — but when “we’ve always done it this way” becomes the default answer, it stops being wisdom and starts being a wall.
In this episode, we talk about why resistant church culture burns women out, silences new ideas, and quietly drives people away. And honestly? It’s costing us more than we realize.
What you’ll hear in this episode:
- Why “we’ve always done it this way” feels safe — but slowly kills momentum
- How resistant culture silences women’s voices and fresh ideas
- The emotional cost of keeping peace instead of naming truth
- Why new doesn’t have to mean reckless — it can mean healthier
- Hopeful ways to shift culture without losing your mind (or your faith)
