The Dismantling Doctrine Podcast

After doing what we thought was the final episode of my Rock n' Roll Soul series of podcasts, my wife and I discovered that one more session was needed. In this show, we discuss our journey in moving to the United Kingdom 11 years ago, and what factors led us to the decision to walk away from the organized, mainstream church. Please rate and review on iTunes!

This is the final episode of my "Rock n' Roll Soul" podcast series. For this concluding episode, which is the story of my last 18 months in full-time church ministry, I bring in a special guest--my wife, Lisa, to share her point of view on the whole experience.

In this episode, I start planning my move out of full-time ministry and out of the church. I pitch my proposal for an exit strategy, but will it work? Tune in to hear Part 9 of my story of when I was in full-time church ministry.

In this next episode of my "Rock n' Roll Soul" series, part 7, I reach the lowest ebb during my time in ministry. Being in church ministry and leadership can be a tiring, thankless and exhausting job. If you want to hear the next installment, please listen in...

This show tells the story of how, after I hit rock bottom in church leadership, I begin to see a way forward. But would I be able to pull it off? Listen in to find out what happened next in this ongoing story of my struggles in church ministry.

Heard a few sermons in your lifetime? Some good, others not so good? In this podcast I'll help you to become...a better listener of sermons. I unpack the process of what preachers generally go through to prepare and preach sermons. This will help to educate and help you to become a critically-involved, empowered listener. Preachers will benefit from this podcast also!

In this show, part 6 of my "Rock n' Roll Soul" podcast series, I continue the story of my experiences of nearly 12 years in ministry. This episode picks up the story of my life-changing encounter at the Willow Creek Leadership Summit, and how that completely transformed my approaches to church leadership and people management.

A potentially disturbing trend threatens the church: Christians leaving organized churches, but not abandoning their faith in God. What is behind this trend? Tune into this Preacher's Forum podcast to find out.

Part 5 of my current podcast series picks up the story of my life and experiences in full-time pastoral ministry. In danger of total burnout, I look desperately for solutions to help both me, and the church I was leading, move forward.
