Podcast Episode #081


Pastor and author Kerry Shook joins us on the podcast this week. On the show, we discuss Kerry’s new book, multisite ministry, megachurches, and much more.

Some highlights from the episode:

  • Sermons are only half over when you hear them. You need to live them out as well.
  • “It’s what you learn after you know it all that counts.” – John Wooden
  • We have to keep learning as pastors.
  • In those early days of our church plant, we got a lot more negativity from Christians than non-Christians.
  • Leadership tension is needed because it draws us closer to the Lord.
  • Dream big, pray hard, build people, and leave the results to God.

About Kerry Shook:

His messages are relevant, and his illustrations memorable.
