Ever feel stuck with endless tasks, like sermons to write or crises to manage? I get it—and I've got some stories and tips to help you break through those barriers. I like to think of them as "task blockades" and once you understand it, you can get through them more easily.

How much do you think about communication and social media in your church? I'm not in a local church anymore, but I think about it often. Both in my own ministry AND in the pastors I talk with each day. I've been rolling around a different personal social media strategy for the last month. I want to share it with you, but also help you understand why this is a pattern I think churches should consider.

I wrote a book! I'm not doing a massive release or campaign for it to come out, but I am letting folks know about it. I've begun using NotebookLM, an AI tool of Google's for a variety of things lately. One of the things I love about it is how it can produce an AI hosted audio podcast based on documents imported. Out of curiosity this week, I uploaded the manuscript into NotebookLM and was seriously impressed. I decided to share that with you. My book is specifically aimed at normal-size church leaders/pastors and that squarely lands inside of the Productive Pastor family.

We are back. In episode 127, I give you an update about the podcast for 2025, share some new things, and explore a bigger idea I've been working on in my head these last few months. It comes with a core conviction. "Healthy pastors create healthy churches, and healthy churches create healthy pastors." Let's jump into the conversation about how our own approach to productivity actually does have a bearing on seeing and understanding church health.

How do you feel about managing events at your church? They low-key used to be my least favorite thing. So years back, my staff got together and tackled the problems we had, created some systems, and used Trello to manage events. Let me share with you how we did it all.

So what is a big project in ministry? I've been asked this question several times lately in different backchannels. So I wanted to answer it, and share my favorite way to design AND manage big projects. We step into a framework which starts at the end.

Project management is one of those skills most of us have to learn. We aren't naturally great at it. In Cal Newport's latest book, Slow Productivity, he shares an approach to project management I've found helpful personally. It translates over to ministry really well. So let's look at the push/pull methodology of project management.

Finding the perfect productivity system first means admitting the perfect system doesn't exist. But an appropriate one, unique to you, does exist. I find systems tend to run in cycles, and at the end of one, hopefully we have found a new tool that actually provides deep value. Over the last few months, I have been relying more on analog tools because I have to be adaptive in a new ministry context. Let me share more about deciding what tools are actually helpful and how I am integrating analog tools back into my workflow.

What happens when ministry is changing and you need to learn new skills? Seminary and Bible College might teach the Christian leader to do many things, but rarely do we think about what it means to learn new skills and level up in our vocational abilities.
