Kurt Trempert from HarvestDowntown.org in Colorado Springs joins Jeff today for Episode 409. Kurt&apos;s book, Kaleidoscope - Keeping the Church from becoming a Museum, was released in 2017, and while they talk about the message of the book, they also talk all things church ministry. Kind of a part one to this episode would be Weekend Edition 34 of the Coaching For Pastor&apos;s podcast, Jeff&apos;s other podcast for pastors. You can google it and find it easily. On that podcast they don&apos;t talk about Kurt&apos;s book, but about pastoral life and ministry - all different content that&apos;s really interesting and challenging. Kurt&apos;s been in his church for 23 years and they talk on that Weekend Edition episode about longevity in ministry. <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Kaleidoscope-Keeping-church-becoming-museum/dp/179016589X/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2OZ59BXEVRR11&amp;keywords=kaleidoscope+trempert&amp;qid=1671011331&amp;sprefix=%2Caps%2C99&amp;sr=8-1'>CLICK HERE for Kurt&apos;s book on Amazon</a> <a href='https://www.harvestdowntown.org/'>CLICK HERE to see Kurt&apos;s church website</a>

Jeff Keady and Jonny Craig: Pastors, Leaders, Bloggers, Podcasters, and Encouragers

Jeff and Jonny are pastors who want to encourage pastors of “smaller” churches. All most pastors see online are the churches that have grown into the thousands in just a few years, the ones that spread out around the city through multiple services and multiple campuses. The ministry leaders with the most influence are the mega church pastors with mega ministries, staffs, and dollars. Praise God for what He is doing in these large and influential churches! We benefit from their vision and influence.Jeff and Jonny know that there are hundreds of thousands, that have 200 or less in attendance. The work of these pastors and ministries can get lost in the shuffle, and they want to encourage, equip, support, inspire, and cheer on the pastors of 200churches – those churches with around 200 people, give or take a hundred or two! When they talk with guests like N.T. Wright, Scot McKnight, Dan Reiland, Carey Nieuwhof and so many more, they always turn the conversation to small church pastoral ministry.With humor, passion, conviction, and care Jeff and Jonny share methods and inspiration for the small church pastor. If you are a lay, bi-vocational, or solo pastor, the 200churches Podcast is for YOU!
