Most leaders want to see lost people become disciple-makers, but the gap between desire and action gets fuzzy fast. In this episode, Mark and Dave name the two biggest barriers: not knowing where to start and not knowing what to do next. They push back on the fear that a “lost to leader” pathway is too mechanical and show why clarity actually helps you stay steady when people get messy, distracted, or stuck. If you’ve ever felt the...

Most believers say Scripture is central, but in real life, experience often ends up calling the shots. In this episode, Dave and Mark unpack why disciple-making pathways are not invented from scratch, but discovered from the Word of God and lived out in real places like work, school pickup, business, and everyday relationships.

They use the Wesleyan Quadrilateral, Scripture, tradition, reason, and experience, to show why the order ...

What if your biggest disciple-making problem is not failure, but aiming at "success" and getting something different than how Jesus defines it?

In this episode, Mark and Dave unpack why a production mindset can quietly turn people into projects and push us to “innovate our way out of success.” They show how Jesus defines success through time, transformation, relationship, and reproduced lifestyle, not quick outputs. This m...

Your job is not in the way of your calling. In this episode, Mark and Dave unpack why work, business, family, neighborhood, and mission were never meant to live in separate compartments. They show how your workplace may not just fund ministry, but become one of the main places God has already given you access for the gospel.

If you have ever felt torn between making a living and making disciples, this conversation will help you see...

Good tools matter. But tools alone rarely lead to real multiplication. In this episode, Mark and Dave unpack what often gets missed between solid training and lasting fruit: seeing disciple-making lived up close, inside real habits, real relationships, and real ministry rhythms.

They debrief the recent New York Covo Immersion and show why people don’t just need better content. They need withness, shared practice, and the kind of pa...

Most disciple-making gets stuck because people hear a lot or train through tools but rarely see a life they can actually imitate. In this episode, Mark breaks down why Jesus didn’t mainly train through more explanation, but through withness, exposure, and real obedience in motion. He shows how immersion clears the fog, builds courage, and helps normal believers picture what following Jesus can actually look like in ordinary places.

    A viral story out of New York shows an NYPD chief in full dress uniform jumping a fence and running toward a suspected bomb threat. Most people see a heroic moment. But that moment didn’t start there. In this episode we unpack why leaders don’t magically rise to the occasion. They fall to the level of their habits. The instincts that show up under pressure are built long before the pressure arrives. We talk about muddy boots leader...

    Everyone wants multiplication fast. But the people who last in disciple-making learn something different. In this episode, Mark and Dave talk about why most leaders burn out chasing one-year results and how long obedience through habits and rhythms actually produces multiplication. If you want to stay faithful in ministry for decades instead of flaming out in a few years, this conversation will reset how you think about growth, sea...

    Most movements stall because they skip the tribe. We talk about personal faith and global mission. Private devotion and citywide impact. But the layer in between, the tribe, is where movements actually take root. Tribes are networks of households living the same way, reinforcing shared identity, and making obedience normal instead of exceptional.

    In this episode, we unpack the sociology and biblical pattern behind lasting movements....

    You want multiplication, but your calendar keeps producing events. Mark and Dave argue the issue is not vision, it is the daily patterns quietly shaping what people actually become.

    They show how Jesus built movements by embedding repeatable practices into ordinary life, not by running bigger gatherings.

    Gen Z will talk about Jesus all day and still disappear tomorrow. In this episode, we name the tension leaders keep running into: real spiritual openness paired with zero follow-through. We unpack what we’re seeing on the ground in New York and Oklahoma City, why ghosting isn’t just annoying but formative, and how digital-first relationships are warping discipleship.

    Most leaders don’t fail because they’re lazy. They miss their goals because they’re unfocused. In this episode, we break down in 19 minutes how to choose the one or two activities that actually move the work forward, based on the phase you’re in right now. If 2026 already feels busy but not effective, this will snap things into focus fast.

    Most leaders don’t need more content, they need a place to actually practice the way of Jesus with other people. In this episode, Dave breaks down how a weekly dinner-table “community of practice” is forming disciples through a year-long, chronological walk through the Gospels. You’ll hear the simple structure, why it’s working, and how shared practice (not polished teaching) is producing real ownership, honest questions, and momen...

    When culture feels chaotic and leadership decisions feel heavy, the church doesn’t need new strategies—it needs to recover an ancient precedent. In this episode, Mark and Dave call leaders back to the New Testament pattern of the Word of God, the Spirit of God, and the community of God working together to discern the way forward.

    Using Acts 15 as a case study, they show how the early church resisted centralized authority and instead...

    Multiplication sounds simple until it collides with the real world and its mess. In this episode, we dig into why the mission that started in Eden now feels like navigating a tornado. Jesus actually told us this would happen—and he trained his leaders to thrive in it, not fold under it. You’ll walk away seeing the whirlwind differently and knowing how to lead with both simplicity and shrewdness.
