The Ministry Connect Podcast is a place to connect as ministers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, in order to encourage and support one another, and to resource each other and the local church.
How do you lead a worship and creative arts ministry when you can’t have an entire group together for a full rehearsal? How can we utilize technology to help connect our worship musicians? What is it like leading worship in an “empty” sanctuary? We sit down with two phenomenal worship pastors to discuss all of this and more on this episode!

Education seems to be a landscape that is ever-changing under normal circumstances. With school campuses now closed under stay-at-home orders and social distancing guidelines, the shift to online/distance learning has happened dramatically and quickly.

We answer those questions and more with two phenomenal educators in this episode!

While one might think that, because of social distancing and isolation, people are becoming disconnected, many are discovering ways to actually strengthen their personal relationships. As the church, so much of what we are called to do centers on interpersonal connections, so how can we leverage this time to our benefit and deepen our connections - not only with people outside of our home, but also with our families? In this episode, Blake and Adam welcome John Brockman to the (virtual) table to dig into it.
Panel Members:
John Brockman - Executive Pastor, Dwell Church (Allen, TX)
Blake Snapp - Lead Pastor, Christwalk Church (Fernandina Beach, FL)
