In this episode, Brian focuses on what it means to “Gospel ourselves daily,” emphasizing the need for continual engagement with the gospel to address areas of unbelief. The discussion introduces the 'Four G's of Gospel Fluency', God is Great, God is Glorious, God is Good, and God is Gracious, as tools to help individuals internalize the gospel and transform their lives. Each characteristic of God is explored in relation to common struggles and the importance of surrendering to Jesus.

In this episode, Breanna Wiebe discusses the concept of the 'dominant story' that shapes individuals' perceptions of God and the world. She introduces the 'story diamond' as a tool to understand the overarching narrative of the Bible, which consists of four movements: creation, fall, redemption, and restoration. The conversation emphasizes the importance of recognizing Jesus as the center of this story and encourages us to engage with the scriptures in a transformative way, both personally and within community.

In this episode, Haley Miller discusses the mission of Zero Hour Student Ministries to awaken high school students as disciple makers, emphasizing the need for gospel saturation in schools. She highlights the importance of building relationships through meaningful conversations and prayer, particularly in the context of Gen Z, who are often seen as a post-Christian generation. The discussion includes practical tools for engaging in gospel conversations, such as the 'FROG' method, which encourages students to ask good questions about friends, family, recreation, occupation, and goals. Real-life success stories illustrate the impact of these conversations in fostering deeper connections and spiritual openness among peers.

In this episode, Rob Wegner discusses the significance of clear and reproducible gospel language within the context of microchurches. He emphasizes the centrality of the gospel in the life of believers, illustrating how it serves as a transformative power and a new operating system for engaging with life. Wegner introduces the concept of fractals in faith, suggesting that simplicity in the gospel can lead to profound understanding and disciple-making. He also shares insights on the 'saved wholes gospel' and the importance of integrating the gospel into all aspects of life.

In this episode, we’re revisiting a video series we originally released with Exponential on how microchurches plant the gospel incarnationally in their context. We’ll walk through the heart of the gospel, why it’s the power of God for salvation, and how ordinary people can embody, demonstrate, and share it in everyday life. This series is framed by the Missionary Pathway, a five-phase framework for making disciples and seeing microchurches emerge, and focuses on the third phase: planting the gospel. You’ll also hear practical tools for sharing the good news in real conversations and everyday rhythms.

In this episode, Cory and Brian explore the concept of planting the gospel within existing networks of relationships rather than extracting individuals to “bring them to church.” Jesus gives us the model for this way of making disciples and the rest of the New Testament follows his pattern. We share a few practical strategies for engaging in disciple-making in this way and talk about some of the challenges to this way of living. If movement is what we’re longing for, we have to think about making disciples within already existing relational networks.

In this episode, Cory and Brian walk through next steps after the Missionary Pathway. We primarily focus on the building teams, but we also mention the importance of reproducing the Pathway with other leaders, joining a network, and engaging ongoing coaching. We also share some real-life stories of what we've seen as leaders take these steps. Ready to facilitate a huddle? Head to missionarypathway.com and register. Or, join our next training huddle.

In this episode, Cory McElvain and Cory Ozbun discuss the significance of gospel conversations and the tools available for effective disciple-making. We emphasize the importance of initiating spiritual discussions and the dynamics of casual, meaningful, and spiritual conversations, and we introduce the 'FROG' acrostic as a practical tool for engaging in deeper dialogues. We also cover the value of sharing personal stories and how to invite others to explore their spiritual questions in a natural and relational manner.

In this episode, Brian and Cory discusses the BLESS Rhythms as a practical approach to living out one's faith in everyday life. This acrostic is a helpful tool to remind us of the five incarnational rhythms of Jesus: Begin in Prayer, Listen and Engage, Eat, Serve and Story. We'll give you a biblical foundation for the BLESS Rhythms, an overview of how we integrate them into every day life and encourage you to adopt these rhythms intentionally to enhance and accelerate mission in your context.

In this episode, Brian and Cory explore the concept of the 'Person of Peace' within the context of the Missionary Pathway. We emphasize the importance of finding individuals who are spiritually open and relationally connected to facilitate the spread of the gospel. We talk about practical steps for identifying and engaging with these individuals, the role of miracles in this process, and how to effectively communicate the message of Jesus.
