022 - Dave Ferguson - ”Hero Maker” May 23, 2019

Show notes

Most leaders want to see impact. I am guessing that you desire to see impact in your context. However, we will always limit our potential for impact if we try and be the "hero."

In this episode, Alan sits down with Dave Ferguson to talk about his new book "Hero Make." Dave is a pastor, author, the leader of the church planting network, New thing and the president of Exponential.

The idea of a hero making leader is all about multiplication. Dave shares that true, exponential impact comes when leaders pour into and equip the leaders around them. Not only does developing heros around you lead to more impact but it is a healthier way to lead.

021 - Lance Witt - ”Replenish Your Soul” May 16, 2019

Show notes

In order to pour into others, you need something left to pour out. Many of us in leadership can begin to feel empty, and unable to keep pouring our lives out to others.

In this episode, Alan has a conversation with author and pastor to pastors, Lance Witt. Lance is passionate about helping church leaders find healthy rhythms in their life and the tools and resources necessary to care for their own souls. Unfortunately if we are not careful, church leaders can easily neglect their own souls. One of the greatest gifts you can give to your people is a rested soul, grounded in Jesus. This is why Lance has launched a ministry called "Replenish."

019 - A.J. Swoboda - ”Subversive Sabbath” May 02, 2019

Show notes

Subversive means to undermine an established system. The established culture that we bow to is one of little rest. In fact, if you don't rest, you will probably be celebrated. This exists both inside and outside the church.

In this episode, Alan explores the depths of Sabbath with author A.J. Swoboda. A.J. challenges cultural expectations and dysfunction surrounding the sabbath and offers insight and rhythms to help leaders break free from our restlessness, into a life of rest and health. We talk about rest at Stay Forth Designs a lot, and it is intentional, because we truly believe this is a message that leaders need to hear.

018 - Myron Pierce - ”Side Hustles & Ministry” Apr 27, 2019

Show notes

Burnout can come from all kinds of sources, but one we may neglect is the financial pressures, and the continual anxiety of trying to "make ends meet."

In this episode, we have Myron Pierce on the podcast for the second time. While Myron is a pastor and church-planter, this conversation is all about how Myron has used business to support not only his ministry and the ministry of others, but also his family. Myron has started and led multiple businesses and "side-hustles" that have become a means to further the kingdom of God in his city.

As pastors and planters we often feel like we have 80% of the finances we need to support our families. That 20% gap can cause stress, anxiety and distraction. A "side-hustle" is a side project, service or business that you can monetize to close that gap financially. Many pastors and planters are getting creative and finding ways to serve, love and support their family through new found financial stability.

017 - Bob Clagett - ”I Like to Make Stuff” Apr 18, 2019

Show notes

How do you transform a passion into a career? Or at least a little bit of side income? I bet most of us have asked a similar question.

In today's episode, Alan has a conversation with entrepreneur, author and content creator, Bob Clagett. Bob shares his story and some practical insight and tips into how he took his passion and launched a business. It turns out Bob likes to make stuff, and he was able to take that simple passion and develop a platform and a business because of the value he's been able to add to people's lives. Magic often happens at the intersection of our passions and needs of others. Please consider sharing this with anyone interested in making stuff, starting a business, or adding value through their passions. Enjoy.

016 - Tyler Hill - ”Hospitality Through Valuing Humanity” Apr 11, 2019

Show notes

In a world that has rapidly become more efficient and more automated, how do we continue to value the humanity of the people we serve?

In this episode, we have Tyler Hill in the studio. Tyler is an entrepreneur, coffee shop owner and he is obsessed with hospitality. Tyler challenges us to make sure we don't overlook the person for the service or product we offer. He describes practical ways that we can acknowledge and value the people that we serve.

This podcast was fun for us because we had our friend Cody Burch (from the "Cody Builds a Business" podcast) interviewing Tyler. This episode is full of great content for those leading in any kind of service or hospitality context.

015 - Cody Burch - ”From Invisible to Visible” Apr 04, 2019

Show notes

Depending on the context you lead, "marketing" can feel like a dirty word. However, we think there is so much to learn as leaders when we explore different topics and disciplines.

In this episode, Alan sits down with author, entrepreneur and marketing expert, Cody Burch.

Cody unpacks core principles of marketing and specifically marketing "funnels." He gives us practical examples and tips in how to can get our message in front of people and how we can stay productive. While the topic is a bit outside of our normal conversations, we think leaders can learn how to better communicate from our friends in the marketing world.
