This week's episode is part two of our interview from last week with Sean Blomquist, coach, mentor, "rabbi," and is on the leadership team with the San Francisco branch of 3 Dimensional Ministries, or 3DM. He's worked hard to frame the discipleship journey in the way of Jesus, the journey to the cross, or the "Jesus-shaped journey." They talk about freeing people from the bondage of feeling like you have to answer every question as a church planter, the hero's journey for the church planter and pastor, and about entering into the journey of formation in a way that embraces the formation instead of running away from it. Sean is our most available guest yet–in order to learn more from Sean, you can send him a text message at 925-212-9498. References: The Jesus-Shaped Journey The Hero's Journey  Find more from the Church Planter Podcast on instagram @churchplanterpodcast, on Facebook at Church Planter Podcast, and twitter @cPlanterPodcast.

Peyton and Pete recently watched the documentary Superspreader which explores the topic of religious liberty during the COVID lockdowns. Together, they discuss how to go about both loving and reaching your neighbor in a way that doesn't sacrifice either priority. They acknowledge that, while the church is essential, sometimes being a witness requires us to rethink the way we operate as a body of believers. Thanks for listening to the church planter podcast.

If there's one demographic that Satan doesn't want you to reach, it's the youth. They are the key to multiplication. Unfortunately, we've bought into the lies that you have to reach adults to be successful. That's where the legitimacy and money is. But movement potential is found in the next generation, and if we want to reach the lost, we have to start by reaching the youth in front of us.Thanks for listening to the church planter podcast.

We are back with another episode with Tim and Robert, a part two to last Wednesday's episode on why you should plant a church. But today, they're hitting us with the opposite: how to determine if you actually maybe shouldn't. They focus less on external barriers and more on the heart of the planter, exploring those fun ideas of church wounds, ego bruising, and pride. Plus: some usual banter about baseball and whether or not robots should be umpires.  Find more from the Church Planter Podcast on instagram @churchplanterpodcast, on Facebook at Church Planter Podcast, and twitter @cPlanterPodcast.

Peyton recently launched a new YouTube series called Bookenstein, where he takes a look at books from a variety of genres, pulling out the most important principles. Leaders are readers, and the more broadly you read the better. This episode will have a sneak peek at an upcoming episode on the book Dune by Frank Herbert.

Pete finally watched the movie Jesus Revolution, so he and Peyton decided to talk about it! They discuss the history of the movement, but also talk about how our gut reaction is often to dismiss and marginalize groups of people and not make room for them in our churches. This is a mistake no church planter can afford to make.Thanks for listening to the church planter podcast.

This week's Wednesday episode is a conversation with Tim and Robert who dive into the why behind church planting, asking those questions of "what's so important about it" and "why should you (or why would you!) choose to plant a church?" Tune in to hear the 5 reasons To Plant a Church, and DM us on instagram to tell us your why! We'd love to hear from you! For more from Robert, check out @bobbyfrazier on instagram.

Culture shifts and changes over time, sometimes falling in line with God's heart and sometimes at odds with it. So as you experience cultural shifts, how do you hang on to universal truths? How do you avoid compromise? Is it possible to remain uncanceled over the course of your ministry career? Peyton and Pete discuss these questions to find a path forward.Thanks for listening to the church planter podcast.
