Monday Morning Pastor

We end this season with the place where MMP started 9 seasons ago.  MMP is here because we feel the need to encourage and equip pastors on the hardest day of the week. Natalie brings an important word to pastors, “We aren’t quitters. We are the stayers.”  Her perspective is important and one that has often been overlooked. Lastly, thanks for sticking with us over the years, We hope this continues to be a blessing. We will be taking off August, and then coming back to a weekly rhythm starting in September.  Natalie’s website: https://natalierunion.com/Natalie’s book: Raised To StayNatalie’s IG: @raisedtostayInformation for coaching and spiritual direction can be found atwww.kairospartnerships.org We’d love to hear from you.

I have been a parent for 18 years now, my son is getting ready to go off to college and in the best of times I feel like I have been faithful as a father and in the worst of times, I feel like I have failed.  I sense in the world of parenting the success is in the long game and truth be told, we may never fully know how things turn out.  But this conversation is a great way to have a conversation that is hopeful and challenging as the same time.  We hope you learn from this conversation and find the grace and mercy to continue to be a faithful parent.  Information for coaching and spiritual direction can be found atwww.kairospartnerships.org We’d love to hear from you.

Pastors and leaders, this episode is close to my heart as a follower of Jesus who is passionate about joining with Him in the care and stewardship of the world we live in.  Kyle brings a helpful theological framework (not just in found in Genesis 1 & 2) on creation care as discipleship and mission.  I appreciate his pastoral heart in helping the church engage in a space that so many are already working.  We hope you are challenged and equipped by this interview.  Kyle’s book: Following Jesus in a Warming World  Connect with Kyle: [email protected]   Information for coaching and spiritual direction can be found atwww.kairospartnerships.org We’d love to hear from you.

Doug and Bob sit down with Michelle Ferrigno Warren and talk about justice and the importance of being moved by what is happening around you. Her new book Join The Resistance was also topic for conversation.  We learned a lot and we hope you do too.  Also, Michelle was kind enough to attach a book bundle code.
