In this episode I share a few lessons on life and leadership that we can glean from the changing seasons of nature. I also share a huge announcement about the future of the Small Town Big Church podcast and my journey in life.
- If you live in an area where you experience all 4 seasons in a year, this will make a lot of sense to you.
- We recognize changing seasons when it comes to climate, but we’re often slow to recognize changing seasons of life.
- Here a few lessons about seasons:
- Seasons change and you have no control over them.
- I need to know what season I’m in.
- It’s smart to respond appropriately as the seasons change.
- It’s not helpful to compare myself to people who are experiencing a different season.
- Questions to consider:
- What season am I in?
- In life?
- In ministry?
- In family?
- Am I responding appropriately to the season I’m in?
- I want to end the show today by sharing an update and a big announcement regarding a changing season in my own life.
- The season of the Small Town Big Church Podcast/platform is coming to a close.
- Why?
- As my journey continues on I have better clarity on how I can BEST be serving pastors in this season of my life.
- There are many other great resources for the small town/rural church that did not exist a few years ago. I feel good about that.
- I am simplifying/focusing in order to be able to do more by doing less!
- Where do we go from here?
- I will have two more shows after this one.
- I’m not going away, just moving to some new platforms and I’m inviting you to join me there.
