Feeling like your church small group or supposed “missional community” is a bit of a dud? They can often times get stuck as just a weekly meeting and never really become the intentional, life-on-life, daily experience they are meant to be. (Or can be!) In this episode of Lifeschool we talk about how to pump up your group and breathe new life into things.
Is discipleship about gaining knowledge, or is it about a transformed life? Is it a series of classes or, like with Jesus and his pals, was it an all of life kind of a deal?

Almost no one I know has a lot of extra time on their hands. And you were never created to sustain the pace you may be living at! In this episode of Lifeschool we are talking about the often neglected, but super-important, concept and practice of taking a sabbath day of rest. Remember those?!
For many Christians, a paid position on their church’s staff may seem like the big dream… like they’ve arrived at the “real ministry” pinnacle.

And how, maybe, full time vocational ministry is shifting in our time.
Has the church substituted fun in the place of adventure? And the frontiers for the pew? This week Caesar and Heath talk with author, church planter and our pal, Peyton Jones. His new book “Reaching The Unreached” is a call to convert pew jockeys into missionaries and awake the sleeping giant of Christ’s church in our day. And he’s a fun guy!
