Rob and Vinnie continue their series on Church Health…and sometimes the lackthereof. In this episode, they ponder questions like: Can the congregation help reform an unhealthy church leadership? Should pastors view themselves as the “CEO”?
What about Matthew 18 and dealing with conflict? What is a better way of understanding this often-abused passage?
This is part of a multi-episode conversation where we talk about cultivating a healthy church environment and how to understand church hurt and church abuse.

Rob, Vinnie, and Danny Hall continue discussing the issue of unhealthy church systems and leaders. In the first chunk, they address the pursuit of seeing the church as a kingdom family (and the importance of community that’s needed to become self-aware in our pursuit of health).
In the second part of the show, they discuss the spectrum of church hurt, abuse, and trauma, and how the terms are often (wrongly) used interchangeably when they shouldn't.
This is part of a multi-episode conversation where we talk about cultivating a healthy church environment and how to understand church hurt and church abuse.

Rob and Vinnie welcome Danny Hall begin a multi-episode discussion looking at toxic church environments. How has the “church growth” and “mega church” model (since the 1970s) impacted the modern church? What should a healthy church leader look like? How important is self-awareness for the church leader?
This is part 1 of a conversation that will talk about cultivating a healthy church environment and how to understand church hurt and church abuse.

Have churches misunderstood Paul’s message about the requirements for Pastors and Deacons in the church? Do we apply this chapter too literally, or maybe not literally enough?

EPISODE
Are modern pastors supposed to prophesy? Is prophecy actually the “future telling of events” that we often think it is? How should the pastor respond when a church service is interrupted by a protest (like what recently happened in Minneapolis)? How should the church respond to Christian Nationalism?
Rob and Vinnie continue to discuss the church, the Gospel message (as fulfilled in Jesus), and the role of the pastor to be a prophet—declaring the word of the Lord for the church TODAY!

What are the different forms of church leadership and governmental models? Should each church be autonomous and overseen by one person, or should they be part of a collection of churches?
