love Mark Sayers. Thanks for highlighting him.
I love the rich, honest, long form conversations on this podcast. I'm neither a pastor nor do I work in the church, but as a young christian (26) the conversations on here have been so helpful. thank you so much!
You can tell the truth without love but you cannot love without telling the truth.
A come down day sounds phenomenal... until you're working two jobs, and struggling to find a sabbath each week.
Carey Nieuwhof: another Joel Osteen type pastor that dropped the Gospel for self help many years ago.
Between the 17 and 23 min mark, Louie talks about how he feels about online church vs in-person church, and does a great job of expressing it. What I appreciated also, though, was Cary's respectful response. My experience listening to Cary is that he disagrees strongly with Louie about the importance of online church, yet he didn't push back at all, despite this being his podcast. He allowed Louie to have - and espouse - a completely different view, and I appreciated that. To be clear, Cary agrees whole-heartedly with Louie's view on in-person church. He just has a different perspective on on-line church.
This was incredible
After listening to the wonderful conversation, in an alternate universe Adam's book "think again" might be "Repent" :), looking forward to catching up on the backlog, -pastor in The Salvation Army
