Episode 80: The Interview (but not the one w/ Seth Rogan and James Franco)
Tonight Tim is interviewing for the job he has been doing for the past 6 months. To prepare him for it, we did a mock interview. Only a little bit of it was mockery.

79: New Series, New Members, New New New New Sep 10, 2019

Show notes

Despite our tech issues, we were back today for another fun look at what it’s like bieing in ministry…warts and all.
We both taught New Members classes last week, and both kicked off new series. For the first time since Easter, we are preaching something different from eachother. Tim is in a series on Titus, and Andrew is in Proverbs for the next month.
Tim’s church relaunched their second service, which saw an immediate uptick in attendance. Andrew’s church has been eating together after their one service. We talked pros and cons of splitting services or staying at one.

Tim is on vacation (again), but thanks to the glorys of technology, we were able to hang out and talk all things ministry with our buds. Tim andhis wife Stepjhanie invited Andrew and his family to join them in Orlando, they had a condo for them to use free of charge and ecverything, but due to some prior ministry commitments, they couldn’t go. We talked about the things we give up or chances we have passed up on for the sake of ministry.
Tim has handes over the torch in the student ministry at his church. We talked about remaining on staff but changing possitions, and how to best handle the transition with students and parents. We also dove into the fascinating world of resumes and how to end a series.

What’s better than an elders meeting, how about TWO elders meetings! This week we dove into all things schedule, church attendance, and the joys of explaining cuss words to our very sheltered children.
Then, in an unexpecter turn of events, we spent a considerable amout of time diving into our shared history of growing up in fundamentalist households. It was way too fun.

We were both in the same place at the same time in what felt like months! Andrew’s church had a flood, and he is armwrestling with insurrance and changing programming around. Tim returned from vacation just in time to preach, and plan a back to school event. We discussed whole church vs youth group fall kickoffs, and shifiting in ministry roles and activities.

75: A Tale of Two Camps Jul 30, 2019

Show notes

Timmy is back! Well, kinda. He was in Jacksonville, FL this morning while Andrew was in the Safety Harbor Studio, but thanks to the magic of the internet, it all worked out. Both of us were at camp this past week, and the camps couldn’t have been more different. One was thousands of students, one was dozens. One was in the actual wilderness, and one was at The Wilderness of the Smokies Resort. We talked about the pros and cons of different types of camps, camp rules, and settings.
Tim’s church wrapped up a 10 week series yesterday while Andrew’s church kicked off a new one. We talked about church after a week of camp.

74: Brett Eddy is Here! Jul 22, 2019

Show notes

Tim is still out, taking his students to camp, but Andrew was joined by Brett Eddy this morning. Brett is the Director of Student Ministries at Port City Community Church in Willmington, NC where he has served for the past 16 years. We talked about the shift in one giant student ministry camp to separate middle and high school camps, the role difference he has experienced in moving from an age group specific pastor to director over all of PCCC’s student ministries, and the unique role his church and student ministry played in the relief efforts after Hurricane Florence.
We had some tech issues this episode, but Brett’s insight is so good, that you’ll wanna listen through a little bit of echo.

73: Summer Trips & Tips w/Geoff & Ronald Jul 15, 2019

Show notes

With Tim out of pocket, Andrew was joined this morning by Ronald Long and Geoff Cocanower. Both awesome dudes and DYM main stays. They had both just gotten home from youth trips, so the conversation revolved around best practices for camps and mission trips, as well as staying connected and reconnecting back home.

72: God Bless America, Button Downs & Working Less Jul 09, 2019

Show notes

Nothing like 4th of July week to make the congregation worship America, right? Tim got an earful for the flag not being front and center. Andrew had patriotic socks and someone wearing a “Trump 45” jeresey in the middle of the livestream. Tim accidentily orchidtrated one of the greatest youth ministry events ever, “BYOF” bring your own fireworks night.
We talked about the stresses and pressure of having to dress to preach every week. We discussed how often to repeat an outfit before people start noticing. We are both working different hours this summer than we do during the school year, and have noticed the productivity difference the different hours make.
As Tim’s church continues to go through changes, on of them is a completerebranding, complete with mission and vision statements and a new logo and abreviated name. Another change is that the elders are going out of their way to make sure the spouses and families of the staff are well loved and cared for.
We debated whether or not Father’s Day gifts were worth giving out to dads in the congregation. We talked about the pros anc cons, and got some great examples of gifts and some good reasons why churches do or don’t give them out. Andrew’s church gave out bottles of Dad’s Old Fashioned RootBeer with M&M’s attaatched to look like a bow tie. Tim’s church did nothing. But Tim did seal Andrew’s last rootbeer.
Tim had a church member take him to a baseball game to tell him that they were leaving the church. We talked about the best and worst ways we have had people leave.
See you next Monday!

71: Breath Mints, Subtle Hints & Using What You Got Jun 24, 2019

Show notes

Tim’s breath stinks. He was informed of this right before service yesterday morning. We talked about the meeting he had with his elders about social media usage and how to be approachable to people before they even get to church. The big topic of the day was communion. How to do it. When to do it. How to make it less germy. We discussed breadsticks and Jesus shot glasses.
