137 - A Christian Not Making Another Christian May Not Yet Be a Christian" — Jon Shuler on the One Thing Worth Measuring - June 18th, 2026
<p><strong>"A Christian Not Making Another Christian May Not Yet Be aChristian" — Jon Shuler on the One Thing Worth Measuring</strong></p><p><strong>Description</strong></p><p>Before Jon Shuler had a PhD in church history or a degree in theology, he was a civil engineer — and in episode 137 he reaches back to a diagram from that first training to ask a question every church planter must face. Every church takes in the same resources: people, money, buildings. Every church runs an internal system. Every church produces an output. So why do the outputs differ so wildly? Shuler contrasts abrother in North India who moves men from unbelief to church-planting leadership in under a year with his own Anglican diocese, where the same path takes four years or more — and lands on a line from the great New Testament scholar Raymond Brown that the early Christians believed a Christian who was not helping to make another Christian probably was not yet a Christian. If your system isn't producing disciple-making disciples, Shuler says, the system has to change. A searching, practical, and convicting episode for every companion, church planter, and Great Commission Christian.</p><p></p>

136 - We relate to the Anglican Family — we serve beyond it. - June 9th, 2026
<p><strong>Part 10 of the NAMS Rule & Customary Order Series. </strong></p><p><strong>"We relate to the Anglican Family — we serve beyond it." — Jon Shuler on the Final Two Articles of the NAMS Rule</strong></p><p>In episode 136, Jon Shuler brings the Rule series toward its close by covering Articles IV and V — doctrine and ecclesiastical connection. On doctrine: the faith NAMS contends for is not something any generation gets to reinvent. Drawing on Jude verse 3 and the Lambeth Quadrilateral of 1888, he makes clear that when there is confusion or conflict in the church, the Holy Scriptures are the rule and ultimate standard — full stop. On ecclesiastical connection: NAMS is not owned by the Anglican family, it relates to it — and that distinction is deliberate. The society is committed to kingdom ministry, not denominational ministry, and seeks to serve and be in unity with any church, community, or network that truly submits to Christ, whatever its tradition or history. A searching and clarifying conclusion to one of the most important stretches of teaching in this series.</p>

135 - "We Are Not a Disembodied Community" — The Call to the 2027 NAMS Global Novena - June 2nd, 2026
<p><strong>Part 9 of the NAMS Rule & Customary Order Series</strong>. </p><p><strong>"We Are Not a Disembodied Community" — The Call to the 2027 NAMS Global Novena</strong></p><p>A rule without purpose is just bureaucracy. In episode 135, Jon Shuler steps back before finishing Article III to ask the question that underlies everything: are we getting the results we desire? His honest answer is no — and that's exactly why NAMS exists. He then turns to the Global Society section of the Rule and unpacks the two gathering commitments every companion makes, including the NAMS Global Novena — a nine-day assembly of the whole family, last held in Devon in 2022, now being called for 2027. He traces the Novena back to an offhand remark by Bishop Alex Dickson in January 1995 and makes a direct appeal: start saving now, and come. A rallying and clarifying episode for every companion, every NAMS friend, and anyone who believes the church is meant to be a family of brothers, not a scattered collection of individuals.</p>
