The Nexus Church Planting Podcast is where church planters, pastors, and everyday leaders are equipped to multiply disciple-making communities. This podcast features conversations with practitioners and thought leaders on topics like disciple-making movements, leadership development, gospel clarity, practical ministry, church resources, and planting healthy churches in every context. Whether you’re just starting your church plant or leading an established congregation, you’ll find encouragement, clarity, and practical tools to advance the mission of Jesus.
Andrew Estes talks with Dr. Matthew LaGrange about his book Rediscover Honor and the leadership, counseling, and biblical framework behind it. Matthew shares how a single counseling moment reshaped his understanding of honor, why honor is different from respect, and how this lens changes relationships, boundaries, and conflict resolution. In this episode, Matthew also opens up about his work in church planting assessment and pastoral counseling, including the practical ways he helps leaders, couples, and teams make wiser decisions. The conversation is especially useful for pastors, counselors, and anyone trying to navigate hard relationships without losing conviction or care.

17 John Honold & Tom Wymore | Being and Making Disciples
Most of us talk about disciple-making. Fewer of us have actually done it across forty years, four church plants, and multiple cultures. In this episode, Andrew sits down with John Honold and Tom Wymore — two longtime practitioners behind the book Be. Go. Make. Disciples: The Jesus Way — to talk honestly about what it really takes to make disciples who make disciples.
John is a pastor in Hawaii out of the Hope Chapel / Ralph Moore lineage who, at 65, is planting again. Tom is a theologian, editor, and self-described "papa" with a heart for intimacy with the Father. Together they unpack what came out of the Issachar Symposium — a gathering of disciple-makers from Hawaii to Japan — and what it looks like to trade an over-programmed, under-discipled church for something simpler, slower, and more reproducible.
If you're planting, pastoring, or just tired of doing church busy instead of doing church deep, this one's for you.
