Rob Wegner: Celebrate the Little Things
In this episode, Cory and Brian interview Rob Wegner, one of the directors in the KC Underground. Rob is one of the best "celebrators" we know. We will explore how Rob has cultivated a life of celebration, what has shaped that and why he continues to lead with that posture.

Celebrate the Little Things
In this episode, Cory and Brian kick off a new series for 2023 where we examine "nuggets in disciple-making." The purpose of this series is to offer simple tools, frameworks, or disciplines to everyday people who are committed to disciple-making. We want to step outside of the theoretical and deeply into the practical.
"Celebration of the little things helps us fight comparison, prevent burnout, increase our worship."

Michael "Sully" Sullivan - Psalm 8
We're kicking off a new year and a new prayer and podcast series for 2023. Every great move of God begins with cultivating extraordinary prayer and fasting. Tuesdays are a day of prayer and fasting for the KC Underground. The first Tuesday of each month in 2023 will feature a Psalm that will help our community to pray corporately. We hope you'll head over to the prayer page at KC Underground and download the guide. Today we will interview the author of these prayer guides, Mike "Sully" Sullivan, pastor of Emmaus City Church in Worcester, MA.

Multiplication
In the final week of this series on the Missionary Pathway, Cory and Brian discuss multiplication. While we certainly desire a multiplication of microchurches, that is not all we mean by this word. We want to see multiplication at every level: Prayer and fasting, Incarnational living, gospel planting, disciples made and more. Our hope is that by following in the rhythms and the ways of Jesus, multiplication will be a natural overflow.

Microchurch Emerges
In week four of this series on the Missionary Pathway, Cory and Brian discuss how microchurches emerge out of new disciple-making. This is phase four of the missionary pathway. As new disciples are made out of the harvest, new forms of the church are required. We discuss the definition the KC Underground holds for "church" and the rhythms of these extended spiritual families.
"We don't primarily put Christians into groups on the backside of a weekend service and call it a microchurch. We want to see new disciples made out of the harvest and extended spiritual families emerge."

Plant the Gospel
In this episode, Cory and Brian move the conversation in this mini-series on the Missionary Pathway to phase three: Plant The Gospel. We start this episode with a discussion about a more holistic understanding of the gospel. A better understanding of the gospel will help us more faithfully live out a gospel-centered life. The result is that we become a gospel presence in our networks where we can demonstrate and proclaim Good News.
"The Gospel that Jesus proclaimed was that the Kingdom of God has come near!"

Grace and Supplication #6
The podcast you listen to will be the sixth in a series during 2022 around the themes of grace and supplication. These episodes will be dropped at various points throughout the year. We hope that you will head over to kcunderground.org/prayer-fasting and grab the prayer guide associated with this podcast.
As the KC Underground, we believe that we can only go as far and as fast as we can on our knees. We have committed as a network to extraordinary prayer and fasting. This series of podcasts on grace and supplication in 2022 is our invitation for more of you missionaries that are listening to join in that commitment with us. If you happen to be one of the listeners outside our city, we hope that you'll use that prayer guide and join us in prayer for this city from a distance, as well as using it for your own city. Grab a few people. Invite them to start praying intentionally with you for the sake of a move of God right where you are.

Live Like A Missionary
In this episode, Cory and Brian take the conversation to week 2 of the Missionary Pathway which is Live Like A Missionary. We will discuss the rhythms and resources of how disciple-makers can live incarnational lives in their context, just like Jesus did.
"The BLESS rhythms can be contextualized for any place and time. They are the rhythms of Jesus."

Extraordinary Prayer and Fasting
In this episode, Cory and Brian begin a short series around the Missionary Pathway. The missionary pathway are the five phases that the KC Underground uses to train everyday people in disciple-making principles and practices. In this mini-series, we will spend a week focusing on the five phases, why that phase is important and the resources and rhythms to support leaders in that phase. This week we look at the phase of extraordinary prayer and fasting.
"Prayer always precedes movement. Prayer is not about discovering the strategy, it is the strategy."
