Called to Love the City with Will Plitt
What if our scorecard is wrong? Executive Director of Christ Together, Will Plitt, challenges us to rethink the North American church’s “scorecard.” What if success is less about collecting people and programs - and more about mobilizing disciples and reaching the city? Will shares the great burden that birthed Christ Together, the shift from a collecting OS (Operating System) to a mobilizing OS, and why gospel saturation requires collaboration across churches so every man, woman, and child has repeated opportunities to see, hear, and respond to Jesus.

Grace & Truth in a Post-Christian World with Landon Reesor
Grace & Truth in a Post-Christian World with Landon Reesor (Part I)
In this first conversation with Landon we explore how to live and lead at the intersection of grace and truth in a highly post-Christian context. From broad missional experiences, Landon unpacks why evangelism and discipleship must shift from assumptions to curiosity—observing, asking better questions, and starting where people actually are (think Acts 17, not just Acts 2). Landon introduces Exploring Christianity, a discipleship resource based upon the Lord’s Prayer that helps people believe, grow, and multiply.
Reflection
After listening, take a moment to sit with the Lord and see how God might be inviting you to reorient or recalibrate in your Knowing, Being, and Multiplying.
KNOWING: In your current missional context, where might you need to build out an Acts 17 runway—what theological “scaffolding” must you lay before the name of Jesus makes sense?
BEING: Where do you naturally drift—grace without truth, or truth without grace? And what practice this week will move you toward Jesus’ fullness of both?
MULTIPLYING: Who are you discipling, and what leaders are you intentionally developing in this season? How is God inviting you to go deeper and pour into these disciples and leaders?

Unlocking Kingdom Potential with Rich Robinson
What does it take to lead in a world of disruption, complexity, and rapid change? In this conversation with Rich Robinson — coach, author, strategist, and co-founder of Movement Leaders Collective — we explore how leaders can cultivate movements, unlock kingdom potential in themselves and others, and live faithfully in a time of cultural chaos. Whether you’re leading a church, a team, or simply longing to live more missionally, this episode will stir your imagination and call you deeper into faithfulness.
Rich shares wisdom on:
What God is doing globally in post-Christian contexts
Why discipleship is shifting from platform-driven to grassroots
The difference between catalysts and celebrities in leadership
How to unlock potential in yourself by unlocking it in others
Staying resilient and grounded when everything around you is changing
After listening, take a moment to sit with the Lord and see how God might be inviting you to reorient or recalibrate in your being, doing, and multiplying.
BEING: Where am I being invited to slow down, listen, and deepen my own rootedness in Christ so that my leadership is an overflow of my intimacy with God?
DOING: How can I take one intentional step this week to call out potential in someone else — encouraging them to step further into God’s mission?
MULTIPLYING: What small act of obedience could I take today that, if multiplied, might catalyze others toward movement in my church, team, network, or community?
