Ep. 39 | Prompting & Planning w/ Jon Thompson
In all the many conversations we’ve been having about what the future holds for the post-Covid church, there’s been one common idea that we keep hearing: a sense that God is at work doing something new in His church through Covid and a deep desire to participate with Him in whatever that is.
But how do we know what it is that He’s asking us to participate in?
In this episode, Jessica Powell sat down with Jon Thompson, Senior Pastor of Sanctus Church and author of the books Convergence and Deliverance to talk about the importance of asking God if He has something specific for us to do before we jump into making our plans and what that actually looks like in practice for us as church leaders who are trying to discern what to do in a post pandemic world.
