In this episode, I sat down with Mason King and Nick Crawford—two
of my fellow elders at The Village—to talk about plurality. Not
because it’s trendy, but because it’s biblical, and because it
has been a safeguard in my ministry. Early on, I had all the
power, all the control—and I knew it. It was efficient, it was
fast, and it was dangerous. So we talk about why one-man
leadership is a bad idea, what true elder plurality actually
looks like, and how it’s protected us, humbled us, and served the
body over the years. If you’re planting a church, rethinking
leadership, or just wondering how to build something that
lasts—this one’s for you.

Communio
Communio is not another program. It’s a non-profit organization
that comes alongside churches, training and equipping them to
evangelize through the renewal of healthy relationships,
marriages, and the family. Family structure is key for passing on
faith to children, yet 72 percent of churches lack significant
relationship ministry. That’s where Communio comes in. Communio
has worked with hundreds of churches across the country. These
churches have seen divorce rates drop – attendance rise – weekly
generosity increase – and marriage and family bonds
restored.

alongside your church.
