S9 Ep 12When Ministry Formulas Don't Work
Chuck Wood II and I talk about the dangers of being a reductionist in ministry. Read the article we discussed here: https://pheaney.substack.com/p/beware-reductionismQuotes:The trap we can fall into is being too reductionistic with ministry and how we go about it, thinking if I just follow a few easy steps: Boom, we're going to turn out a movement. Or if I do A, B, and C, then I'm going to have a new healthy disciple. We need to just be aware that that's not really how life works, not even how the kingdom works, if we read the Gospels and we read Acts.If you're struggling with the messiness and long-term timeline that this takes, go and look into the mirror and ask the question, how is God so patient with me? And when you come to that answer, then you will extend that same patience, that same endurance and persistence in your disciple-making ministry as well.Season 9: On Pioneering/How to Stick, Episode 12 This is a public episode.

S9 Ep 11Let Go of the Chainsaw
Chuck Wood II and I talk about what happens if we hold on to our familiar tools too tightly. This is a conversation about my blog post: https://pheaney.substack.com/p/learn-to-drop-your-familiar-toolsQuotes:That's the one thing that Jesus came off the top ropes on the Pharisees for: You elevate your traditions above the commands of God. We don't want to get sideways with Jesus over tools, you know.Principles transcend time, culture, and geography. Tools do not. And so we, as pioneers, have to adapt our tools to the principle.Season 9: On Pioneering/How to Stick, Episode 11 This is a public episode.

S9 Ep 10Avoiding the Traps of Busyness and Comfort
Chuck Wood II and I talk about the two main traps we can fall into, thinking we’re being productive for the Kingdom.Quotes:In modern knowledge work, and it can also be true in ministry, there's a lot of things that we don't actually have an accurate, real measurement of how they might contribute to the bottom line.I think a lot of our results are measured by obedience versus outcome. Did I spend time with Jesus in the Word and prayer? Did I share the gospel? Did I practice my gift? Those kind of things, those are obedience-based versus results-based.Season 9: On Pioneering/How to Stick, Episode 10 This is a public episode.

S9 Ep 9Finding the Sweet Spot
Chuck Wood II and I discuss Riding the Wave: https://pheaney.substack.com/p/riding-the-waveQuotes:I love that idea of perfectly unrushed... For being fully God and outside of time in one sense, it's awesome to see what fully God, fully man looked like just walking in time, never busy... always with things grabbing for his time, but never hurried, never rushed.A soldier is built for war, not for the hospital. And so if we're spending all our time in the hospital, we're doing great things, but we're not winning the war... I think it's in the heart of every believer that they know the fight is out there among the lost.You actually are commissioned to go make disciples of all nations. But on the other side, the same thing is true is you have no chance of fulfilling the Great Commission.Season 9: On Pioneering/How to Stick, Episode 9 This is a public episode.

S9 Ep 8Why Jeremiah Needs a Hobby
Chuck Wood II and I discuss a surprising way to persevere if you’re in a season of ministry that feels like the prophet Jeremiah. This conversation is based on my post, The Progress Principle: https://pheaney.substack.com/p/the-progress-principleQuotes:If your leaders are not asking you questions that facilitate rest and recreation, you might wanna find different leaders because your wheels are gonna fall off sooner or later. And that's part of making disciples.When somebody walks away from the faith or walks away from our discipling or our even shepherding or leading, that actually hurts and that does something to us. There's a little therapy in the fact that I can go and I do this job. And when I came back the next day, those wires didn't move themselves out of the wall.Season 9: On Pioneering/How to Stick, Episode 8 This is a public episode.

S9 Ep 7Learning from the Flop
Chuck Wood II and I talk about how to conduct an autopsy when something in ministry isn’t going as you thought, or is an outright flop.This conversation is based on this post: https://pheaney.substack.com/p/how-to-fail-forwardQuotes:The original intent is the idea that we failed. But we're moving forward because we learned something from that failure. I think we can misuse it if we just say it flippantly without actually thinking about it, then that's what's going to lead to the actual fail and not the ability to move forward.The Army cranks out 300 to 400 paratroopers a week. The last time we had a major airborne assault was World War II... So why in the world is the army investing time and resources in teaching people an antiquated combat delivery system? One word: courage. The paratrooper learns courage, which translates to everything in a soldier's job... The goal wasn't teaching people how to jump out of the airplane. The goal was teach them courage.Don't be afraid to pull the plug.Season 9: On Pioneering/How to Stick, Episode 7 This is a public episode.

So even as we're pioneers in any context, we need to remember there's people that have come before us.Character is very important, but let's also put having people that are doing life with us right up there with our character.Season 9: On Pioneering/How to Stick, Episode 6 This is a public episode.

Not just check it out a little bit or drop three seeds and then head back to the city.The first adjustment might not be any movement whatsoever other than just get your life oriented around God.Season 9: On Pioneering/How to Stick, Episode 5 This is a public episode.

S9 Ep 1The Minimum Trellis
Welcome to the start of Season 9 of the On the Road Podcast. I’ve had a few years now of sporadic episodes, but starting with this one, there should be a regular rhythm of new episodes for a while.

Season 4: Stories from $0 Churches
What does it look like to see God birth new churches among lost people?All around America there are bonafide living and breathing churches, filled with disciples of Jesus. These disciples used to be far from God. And these churches have cost nothing to start. Many of them are reproducing.In On the Road Season 4, we’ll be sharing stories of God working in and through these $0 churches. I can’t wait to learn together about the amazing work God is doing and how we can join him in it.The first part of Season 4 will be multiple interviews to help us better see those churches. Most of us can picture and even feel what church in a building at 10 am on Sunday is like. I’m hoping to help us better understand what simple churches look and feel like. Along the way, we’re going to learn a ton about what God is doing today.After those interviews, I’m hoping to put together a work with the lessons learned. I’m not sure what that will look like yet. It may be an audio documentary, a series of podcast episodes, a book of some sort, or just a one-page article. Regardless of the end product, I want to pull together the lessons learned so we can better understand and celebrate how God is working.There are a lot of people and places we could learn from, but I want to filter down to churches with the following criteria:They are autonomous churches, not cell groups.They are in a western context.They are made up primarily of people who were not following Jesus before the church came together.As already stated, I’ll be looking for low to no-cost churches.In addition, I’ll be looking for if the church is reproducing disciples and birthing new churches.I hope you’ll jump into Season 4 and learn with me.

The Math Behind Movements
I really enjoyed this interview with Chris Keener about a mathematical model behind movements. That sentence alone scared me at first, but diving into his article and then dialoguing the concepts with him has really helped me think through how I’m approaching the task of multiplying disciples.Show Notes:Published Article: A Mathematically Based Model of Disciple Making MovementsPrevious Conversation with Brett Butler about Money and Movements: https://pheaney.substack.com/p/movements-and-moneyTime Stamps, Topics & Quotes:5:33 “before multiplication happens there is a lag where things don’t seem to move”12:10 Two key factors: Receptivity and Relationships21:40 “You control the amount of time that you spend”23:05 Purely scattering seeds will not get you to multiplication25:22 Rejoice if you have a new disciple every 2 years30:15 The math breaks down if we rely on paid professionals35:40 “Do I demand the reward of seeing frequent positive results?” This is a public episode.

Where did the Four Fields originate?
I was recently casting vision to another kingdom worker and using the four fields illustration as a paradigm for ministry. He asked me a simple question: Where did that come from?

Help People Take One Step Closer to Jesus
Chris Lynch shares some key insights about helping people take one step closer to Jesus.I recently ran across the "Engel Scale" which shows some specific steps people take on their journey to Christ. When I posted a question on Facebook, Chris provided a great response (see below) that led us to schedule this interview.Check out the BLT Communities that he mentions: https://ontheroad.link/blog/luke-10-principles-in-social-communitiesHere is Chris's original response:We trained this before there was NPL. We paired it with the parable of the soils (Mark 4) and emphasized looking for God prepared people. If you don’t know who you’re looking for then you’ll rarely find them.At the same time, we tried to help people see:People are on a journey. It’s our responsibility to start where they are and help them move towards God as long as our journeys overlap.New churches starting from the lost among the lost give those who have farther to go on their journey a greater chance of coming to faith in Jesus through a sustained Gospel presence.The Gospel, mouth to ear, is the best litmus test to begin understanding where a person is on their journey.The distance from God is the same no matter where a person is on the scale before trusting Jesus as king. The journey will be different, but no one is more lost than another.Visit ontheroad.link to subscribe to get this podcast and blog posts from Pheaney delivered to your email.
