The Leadership Roundtable Podcast

Season 4, Episode 4: The story of our church is one of God’s faithfulness. We learned early that when you put what you have in His hands, there is no telling what He will do with it! Every step of the way along this 14-year journey, God has provided opportunities greater than we could have imagined… but it started with us asking some tough questions, making difficult decisions, and forcing ourselves out of our comfort zones for the glory of God! Special guest, Pastor Kurtran Wright, one of the original staff members of One Community Church, joins us once again to talk about our uniquely humble beginnings. 

Season 4, Episode 3: How does a leader know when it’s time to move to the next level? Great leaders need to be able to discern when someone is in their leadership "sweet spot!" Special guest Pastor Kurtran Wright joins us to discuss some mistakes that leaders often make when trying to develop other leaders and the key strategies to determining when a leader on your team is ready to expand their reach! 

Season 4, Episode 2: What factors can determine church growth? The reality is that every church is different, and therefore leaders must be in tune with the unique culture of the congregation and the specific needs of the community they desire to serve. As One Community Church gets ready to celebrate 14 years, Pastor Kurtran Wright, one of our original members, joins us to talk about humble beginnings and the unique strategies that churches can adopt as they start growing! 

Welcome to Season 4, Episode 1 of the Leadership Roundtable! A podcast with Dr. Conway Edwards. Special Guest: NFL Hall of Famer Pastor Aeneas Williams joins us to talk leadership lessons and the importance of leading with the team in mind!

Special Guest: Pastor Luke Brownell. Healthy leaders understand that you can either have control or you can have growth… but you can’t have both! If everything is under control, it is likely a sign that your organization is NOT growing, or at least not growing as fast as it could be. An organization that is growing will never have enough leaders. Pastor Luke Brownell joins us to discuss how to identify (and overcome) the specific challenges that are holding back opportunities for growth in your organization! 

Special Guest: Pastor Luke Brownell. When something is “sticky” it doesn’t move easily, and it usually clings to whatever it touches. Creating a sticky environment in your organization means designing a rhythm to get new people attached to the vision and move them from guests to spectators to contributors as quickly as possible! Too often leaders are focused on the numbers and miss the opportunity to connect people to what God has called them to do. Pastor Luke Brownell, One Community Church Prosper Campus Pastor, joins us to discuss the key next steps your organization can take to get your people to stick!

Special Guest: Bishop Van Moody. The true mark of a healthy leader is summed up in the answer to one question: Can you lead your own life well? Great leaders understand the importance of self-reflection and accountability. If you are not where you need to be, or WHO you need to be for your teams, it is easy to become a stumbling block to the work that God is trying to do. Bishop Van Moody joins us to discuss some key strategies for leaders to use when taking inventory of their own lives. It all starts on the inside! 

Special Guest: Bishop Dale Bronner. Innovation is NOT an option; it is essential for growth. We must be able to look far enough into the future to anticipate what the needs will be before they come, reflect on where we've been and determine where we want to go. Bishop Dale Bronner joins us to discuss what innovation looks like in the church and how great leaders use innovation to inspire and empower their teams. 

Special Guest: Pastor Luke Brownell. Part 2 of Dr. Conway Edward's conversation with Pastor Luke Brownell of One Community Church Prosper Campus discussing the key strategies to successfully relaunch your church, re-engage volunteers and get your community on board!
