On today's episode of Lead Well & Thrive Podcast we are continuing our series of our 12 months of church health recommendations and we are going to discuss VISION.

No, not the faculty or the state of being able to see with your natural eyes. Not that kind. 

We are discussing the vision that carries you into your future for success. It propels you from places of familiarity to destinations of unfamiliar places of expansion. Vision is not simply being able to see with your eyes open (that is what we call sight), Vision is what you see with your eyes closed. 

  • Vision is needed for church progress, for church momentum, for church growth.
  • Vision is a unifying factor that can cause cohesion and strength in the body of Christ.
  • Vision is God’s prescription for a healthy church

Join us as we discuss the topic for having vision for establishing & maintaining church health

The Thriving Church Consulting Group presents Lead Well & Thrive Podcast. On today's episode we are led to discuss discipleship. Ever wonder what it means to be a disciple of Jesus? If discipleship is still relevant in today's time. What the consequences would be if we didn't make disciples according to biblical scripture?  Jesus in the word of God commanded us to make disciples and in today's broadcast we will discuss all things leadership and all things discipleship, mentorship, and small groups in the church and in the marketplace.In this 30 minute podcast we will discuss different methods of discipleship--small groups, mentoring, and preaching/teaching. My cohost Dr. Michael Rackley—professor/Chairman of the Ministry & Leadership Department at South Florida Bible College &Theological Seminary, author of "We Will not Bow to Babylon's Table", blogger, and certified church consultant is here with me to shed some light on the topics of leadership and discipleship and what that looks like in the 21st century church.
