CPP #637 - SA and the Church

Mon, 20 Apr 2026 06:00:00 -0600

In this episode of the Church Planter Podcast, Peyton Jones sits down with members of Sexaholics Anonymous to talk about a struggle many leaders face, but few talk about.

Behind the scenes, sexual addiction, lust, and hidden sin are impacting pastors, leaders, and everyday believers. Shame keeps people silent, and isolation keeps them stuck.

Through honest stories of addiction, relapse, and recovery, this conversation brings things into the light. It challenges leaders to stop hiding, get help, and build cultures where people can be known, supported, and set free.

CPP #636 – Brian Sanders on How Microchurches Grow Out of Mission

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 05:00:00 -0600

In this episode of the Church Planter Podcast, Peyton Jones sits down with Brian Sanders, founder of The Underground Network, to talk about the relationship between disciple making and microchurch planting. Brian explains why churches aren’t meant to be planted first and disciples made later. Instead, churches should emerge from the soil of mission as disciples are formed in real life and real relationships. The conversation explores mobilization, calling, relational networks, and why smaller expressions of church often mobilize more people for mission than larger models.

They also discuss the importance of proximity in discipleship, why microchurches form naturally out of relational networks, and how discovering your “where” (your calling to a people or place) often leads to new ministries and new church expressions. If you’re interested in disciple making movements, microchurches, or mobilizing everyday believers for mission, this conversation will challenge how you think about church planting...and where it really begins.

CPP #635 - Steve Addison on Everywhere

Mon, 06 Apr 2026 06:00:00 -0600

In this episode of the Church Planter Podcast, Peyton Jones sits down with movement researcher, author, and practitioner Steve Addison to talk about his new book Everywhere: How God Multiplies Disciples and Churches. Drawing from stories around the world, from prisons in Texas to underground movements in the Middle East and Asia, Steve shares how ordinary believers are being used by God to spark disciple-making movements in some of the most unlikely places.

They discuss why movements don’t spread through professionals but through everyday disciples, how simple obedience and simple tools lead to multiplication, and why the gospel is still the driving force behind every movement of God.

If you’re a church planter, disciple maker, or leader who wants to see multiplication rather than addition, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to rethink what’s possible when ordinary people take Jesus’ command to make disciples seriously.

CPP #634 – Tiffany Stein on Mourning God

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 06:00:00 -0600

In this episode of the Church Planter Podcast, Peyton and Andrea Jones sit down with Tiffany Stein—pastor, church planter’s wife, and author of Mourning God: Grieving Loss, Wrestling with God, and Finding Your Way Back to Life.

Tiffany shares her powerful story of faith, loss, and leadership after the death of her infant son, David, who lived for 53 days. As a pastor in a highly visible church context, her grief unfolded publicly, forcing her to wrestle not only with devastating loss, but with the haunting silence of God that followed.

This conversation goes beyond theology and into the raw, emotional terrain church planters and ministry leaders often face but rarely discuss. Tiffany unpacks:

What it means to “mourn the God you thought you knew”
Why emotional doubt can be more destabilizing than intellectual doubt
The danger of quick-fix theology and Christian clichés
Why the Church desperately needs a robust theology of lament
How leaders can grieve authentically while still shepherding others
The humbling discipline of receiving care instead of always giving it

For church planters leading through infertility, loss, burnout, unanswered prayer, or spiritual silence, this episode offers permission to be human and a pathway back to hope.

CPP #633 – John Teter and Larry Walkemeyer on The Making of a Multiplier

Mon, 23 Mar 2026 06:00:00 -0600

In this rich and forward-looking episode of the Church Planter Podcast, Peyton Jones sits down with two seasoned practitioners of multiplication: Larry Walkemeyer and John Teter, co-authors of The Making of a Multiplier: Four Seasons to Maximize Your Kingdom Legacy.

Between them, Larry and John bring decades of church planting, denominational leadership, mentoring, and movement-building experience. From planting 30+ churches out of Light & Life Fellowship in Long Beach to launching businesses like 5000 Pies in Compton as a discipleship engine, these leaders don’t just talk multiplication, they live it.

In this conversation, they unpack:

Why so many leaders fail to finish well, and how to avoid it
The four-season framework of leadership development (Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter)
Why Barnabas is the ultimate model of a multiplier
The overlooked power of investing in others instead of chasing platform
How multiplication legacy can outlive visible ministry

Larry shares from his own “winter” season of influence without authority, while John reflects on how nearly resigning from ministry at 25 led him into a lifetime study of finishing well.

CPP #632 – The Shalom Star and the Character of a Leader

Mon, 16 Mar 2026 06:00:00 -0600

In this episode of the Church Planter Podcast, Peyton Jones and Pete Mitchell explore a foundational idea behind Discipology: before you make disciples, you must first become one. But that doesn’t simply mean being saved, it means allowing the character of Jesus to shape your life.

Peyton explains how the New Testament qualifications for leaders ultimately describe a life that reflects Christ’s character. From there, he introduces the Shalom Star, a practical tool designed to help believers evaluate whether their lives are growing in healthy, Christ-like balance across six key areas: spiritual life, honor (responsibilities), affections, learning, others, and mental health.

Together, Pete and Peyton discuss why imbalance in a leader’s life can undermine their witness, how discipleship shapes character through proximity to Jesus, and why personal transformation must come before effective disciple-making.

CPP #631 – Joey Cook: Disciple Making on the Fairway

Mon, 09 Mar 2026 06:00:00 -0600

In this episode of the Church Planter Podcast, Peyton Jones sits down with pastor, author, and leadership coach Joey Cook to explore a creative and rapidly growing approach to disciple making—right on the golf course.

Joey shares his journey of faith, from growing up in a small Ozark Mountains church to discovering the deeper relational love of God that now fuels his ministry and leadership. That personal transformation has shaped his passion to help people experience the love of the Father and extend it to others.

The conversation centers around a unique disciple-making movement happening inside golf communities around the world. Through a partnership with PGA professionals and the Bible Caddy podcast, Joey and others are helping launch “feature groups” at country clubs—spaces where golfers gather, build friendships, study Scripture, and talk honestly about life and faith.

What began as a simple idea has quickly multiplied to more than 160 groups globally, connecting believers and non-believers alike through shared passions and authentic conversations about the gospel.

CPP #630 – Discipling the Next Generation

Mon, 02 Mar 2026 06:00:00 -0600

The topic was supposed to be “Discipling the Next Generation”…and we got there, just not how you’d expect.

In this episode, Peyton and Pete unpack an often-overlooked ingredient behind disciple-making movements: mentorship.

Peyton shares what it’s been like to have a legend like Ralph Moore personally investing into his church plant and why having a mentor can change the trajectory of your ministry (and your life). From stories of writing letters to paying for coaching that reshaped his future, Peyton makes the case that too many church planters are pouring out without ever letting someone pour into them.

They also tackle:

Why Gen X leaders struggle to ask for help
The difference between wanting mentorship and committing to it
Why skin in the game matters
The cost (and value) of being discipled
Why you should always have someone ahead of you — and someone behind you

If you’re planting, leading, or simply feeling like you’re figuring it out alone…this episode is a reminder: You weren’t meant to. And if we’re serious about discipling the next generation, it starts by modeling what it looks like to be discipled ourselves.

CPP #629 – Larry Walkemeyer on Disciple Making as the Engine for Multiplication

Mon, 23 Feb 2026 06:00:00 -0600

In this powerful conversation, Peyton sits down with his longtime mentor and friend, Larry Walkemeyer, to unpack why disciple-making must come before church multiplication, and why so many movements stall when they skip that step.

Drawing from themes in Discipology and Larry’s forthcoming book The Making of a Multiplier, this episode explores the deep connection between time, teaching, and tactics — the three rhythms of Jesus’ disciple-making strategy that ultimately led to explosive Kingdom impact.

Larry shares:

Why the priesthood of all believers is the theological foundation of mobilization
How relational disciple-making fuels true multiplication
A powerful personal vision that reshaped his ministry philosophy
Why you can’t teach multiplication into existence
The difference between a “lake mentality” and a “river mentality” church

You’ll also hear stories of everyday believers who became disciple-makers simply because someone walked closely with them long enough for the fire to catch.

If you’re passionate about church planting, leadership development, or seeing movements multiply, this episode will challenge you to slow down, go deep, and mobilize before you multiply.

CPP #628 – Kris Langham on Media, Disciple-Making, and the Discipology Plan

Mon, 16 Feb 2026 06:00:00 -0600

What do Van Halen, St. Paul’s Cathedral, and a boring radio station have in common?

For Kris Langham, they were all part of the journey that led him to faith.

In this episode of the Church Planter Podcast, Peyton Jones and Pete Mitchell sit down with Kris Langham, founder of Through the Word, to unpack his remarkable salvation story and the vision behind one of the most accessible Bible engagement tools in the world.

Kris shares how a simple audio Bible teaching format grew into Through the Word, a free app with a 10-minute audio guide for every chapter of the Bible (now approaching 1 million users).

But this conversation goes deeper than technology.

Together, the guys explore:

Why most Christians feel anxiety when they hear “go make disciples”
The critical difference between discipleship and disciple-making
How we often reproduce the way we were discipled, for better or worse
Why disciple-making moves at the speed of relationship
How introverts might actually make the best disciple-makers
How the new Discipology Plan inside the Through the Word app helps everyday believers follow Jesus and take someone with them

CPP #627 - The Making of Discipology

Mon, 09 Feb 2026 06:00:00 -0600

In this episode of the Church Planter Podcast, Peyton Jones pulls back the curtain on the long, surprising, and deeply personal journey behind Discipology.

What began as a question while writing Church Plantology turned into a multi-year exploration of how Jesus actually formed disciples who multiplied. Peyton shares how studying Jesus chronologically—not thematically—reshaped his understanding of disciple making, exposed a leadership pipeline problem in the church, and led to the development of the now-central Time, Teaching, and Tactics framework

Along the way, Peyton talks candidly about the challenges of trailblazing a paradigm where little prior research existed, the spiritual weight of the project, and how a season of prayer and unexpected clarity shaped key tools like the Shalom framework. Pete Mitchell guides the conversation with humor and insight, helping surface why Discipology isn’t just another discipleship book, but a reproducible system aimed at mobilizing everyday believers.

If you’ve ever wondered why disciple making feels harder than it should, or how Jesus actually trained people to do it, this episode offers both the origin story and the heart behind Discipology.

CPP #626 – Elliot Sands on Navigating Polarization

Mon, 02 Feb 2026 06:00:00 -0600

In this episode, Peyton Jones is joined by Elliot Sands, president of Faith First, for a thoughtful and candid conversation about politics, unity, and disciple-making in today’s divided world. From his upbringing as a missionary kid in Nigeria to his work helping Christians navigate cultural and political fractures, Elliot brings a grounded, pastoral perspective to one of the most volatile challenges facing the Church right now.

If you’re a church planter trying to lead faithfully without alienating half your congregation — or wondering how to shepherd people through cultural chaos without losing gospel clarity — this episode will give you language, framework, and hope.

CPP #625 – Discipology

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 06:00:00 -0600

What if the real problem in the Church isn’t multiplication… but mobilization?

In this episode, Peyton Jones and Pete Mitchell go deep into Peyton’s new book Discipology: The Art and Science of Making Disciples—and why Jesus’ original training model might be the missing engine behind today’s stalled movements.

Fresh off a trip to Wales (and a bucket-list encounter with punk icon Johnny Rotten), Peyton breaks down the Time, Teaching, and Tactics framework—how Jesus spent three years forming the Twelve, and why most modern discipleship models stop short of real disciple-making.

CPP #624 – When Heroes Fall

Mon, 19 Jan 2026 06:00:00 -0600

In this raw and deeply personal episode of the Church Planter Podcast, Peyton Jones and Pete Mitchell wrestle with heartbreaking news about one of Peyton’s writing heroes, Philip Yancey.

What happens when a trusted Christian voice falls? How do leaders reconcile great theology with moral failure? And what does this moment teach church planters about integrity, temptation, confession, and the danger of hidden lives?

Drawing from Scripture, personal experience, and years in ministry, Peyton and Pete explore why no one simply “wakes up” and chooses failure—and why isolation, secrecy, and unmanaged wounds often precede a fall. They discuss boundaries, accountability, confession, and the hard but necessary question every leader must ask: Who really knows me?

CPP #623 – Howard Snyder on Consider the Lilies

Mon, 12 Jan 2026 06:00:00 -0600

Peyton Jones sits down with theologian, historian, and mission scholar Dr. Howard Snyder for a wide-ranging conversation on the gospel, the Kingdom of God, and what it truly means to follow Jesus in a fractured world. Drawing from his newest and most ambitious work, Consider the Lilies: How Jesus Saves People and the Land, Snyder challenges the Church to recover a fuller, more biblical vision of salvation—one that includes not only people, but creation itself.

In this episode, Dr. Snyder explains why much of modern theology has become “too small,” how Scripture reveals God’s covenant not only with humanity but with the land, and why Jesus’ mission cannot be reduced to escaping the world rather than renewing it. The conversation explores discipleship, church planting, justice, stewardship, culture, and why the Church must be prepared to speak faithfully into the decades ahead.

For church planters, pastors, and leaders wrestling with the divide between the spiritual and the tangible, this episode offers a compelling framework for understanding the Kingdom of God as both deeply biblical and urgently relevant for our time.

CPP #622 – Joshua Brown on the Pressure Washing Pastor

Mon, 05 Jan 2026 06:00:00 -0600

Joshua Brown—known as the Pressure Washing Pastor—joins Peyton Jones and Pete Mitchell for one of the most compelling conversations the Church Planter Podcast has had in a long time. From a traumatic childhood and growing up without a father, to burnout in vocational ministry, to building a multi-million-dollar pressure washing business as a platform for disciple-making, Joshua shares a raw, redemptive story of identity, calling, and obedience.

In this episode, Joshua unpacks how marketplace ministry became a powerful context for evangelism, discipleship, and leadership development—training young people, forming character before competency, and multiplying leaders outside the walls of the church. The conversation explores co-vocational ministry, service-based businesses, and why pressure washing (of all things) has become a surprisingly effective tool for mission.

If you’re a church planter wrestling with sustainability, burnout, or how to mobilize disciples beyond Sunday services, this episode will stretch your imagination and challenge your assumptions about what ministry can look like today.

CPP #621 – When People Leave

Mon, 29 Dec 2025 06:00:00 -0600

People leave church plants...and it’s not always a bad thing. In this honest conversation, Peyton Jones and Pete Mitchell talk about why people leave, how leaders often take it personally, and why a healthy send-off matters more than trying to hold people tightly. Along the way, they address the dangers of platform-first leadership, social media posturing, and why character (not notoriety) is what sustains long-term gospel impact.

CPP #620 – Why Church Planting Is Hard (and Why It’s Still Worth It)

Mon, 22 Dec 2025 06:00:00 -0600

In this candid conversation, Peyton Jones and Pete Mitchell talk honestly about the emotional and spiritual weight of church planting—the burnout, the doubts, the financial strain, and the moments when you wonder why you ever said yes. Drawing from years of experience, they reflect on why so many church planters quit, why calling matters more than strategy, and how disciple-making offers a hopeful path forward in a season when church planting feels increasingly difficult.

The episode also includes a powerful, real-time story of God’s provision as Peyton shares how prayer, fasting, wise counsel, and unexpected generosity led to a breakthrough for their church’s next gathering space. It’s a reminder that while church planting is rarely easy, God is still active, still guiding, and still opening doors for those willing to trust Him.

If you’re a church planter feeling tired, discouraged, or unsure whether the sacrifice is worth it, this episode offers both realism and renewed perspective for the journey ahead.

CPP #619 – Winfield Bevins on How Beauty Will Save the World

Mon, 15 Dec 2025 06:00:00 -0600

In this episode, Peyton Jones sits down with author, artist, and founder of Creo Arts, Winfield Bevins, to explore why beauty may be the most overlooked catalyst for mission in our generation. Drawing from his new book, How Beauty Will Save the World, Winfield unpacks how art, imagination, and creative calling can open spiritual doors that arguments and strategies often cannot.

Winfield shares his personal journey—from a troubled teen discovering hope through an art teacher, to planting a church through an art gallery, to now leading a nationwide movement that empowers artists and churches to become “missionaries of beauty.” Together, Peyton and Winfield dive into how church planters can recover a biblical, Spirit-empowered vision of creativity, cultivate guilds and galleries within their communities, and lead with beauty in a divided world.

If you’re longing for fresh imagination in ministry—or wondering why evangelism feels stuck—this conversation will reframe how you see discipleship, mission, and the arts.

CPP #618 – What Church Planters Need to Know About the End Times Craze

Mon, 24 Nov 2025 06:00:00 -0600

In this episode, Pete and Peyton dive into one of the most explosive topics resurfacing online today: End Times theology. With Revelation videos going viral on TikTok and Instagram, people—especially younger generations—are asking fresh questions about the last days, the Antichrist, and whether current events signal something bigger. Peyton unpacks how church planters can step into that conversation with clarity instead of confusion.

Together, they explore the difference between dispensationalism, covenant theology, and historicist readings of Scripture, why many popular End Times interpretations miss the point, and how Jesus’ words in Matthew 24–25 fit into the larger storyline of redemptive history. Peyton highlights key resources that help ground leaders in sanity, not sensationalism—and explains why getting Revelation right matters for mission, evangelism, and discipleship.

Whether you love talking prophecy or avoid it at all costs, this episode will equip you to lead your people wisely, pastor skeptics compassionately, and keep the gospel at the center of the cultural conversation swirling around the End Times.

CPP #617 – When Discipleship Replaced the Service

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 06:00:00 -0600

What happens when hardly anyone shows up to church, the worship leader is gone, there’s no sermon prepared, and the pastor is running on four hours of sleep? Most church planters would cancel. Peyton didn’t—and it turned into one of the most meaningful Sundays he’s ever experienced.

In this episode, Peyton tells the story of a tiny gathering that turned into a powerhouse discipleship moment. A recovering addict asked real questions. A brand-new believer learned how to pray out loud for the first time. Walls dropped, Scripture came alive, and the Spirit showed up in ways no carefully planned service could have produced.

This episode is a reminder that church planting is not about the show—it’s about people. When you let discipleship take the lead, Jesus gets the spotlight.

If you’ve ever wondered how to create a culture where people talk, ask honest questions, pray for each other, and grow on Sundays—not just listen—this one is for you.

CPP #616 – Getting Into a Public Space

Mon, 10 Nov 2025 06:00:00 -0600

In this episode, the Peyton & Pete kicks things off reminiscing about the early days of The Church Planter Podcast before diving into one of the most practical topics for planters today: how and where to meet.

Peyton unpacks his current church plant journey and explores creative ways to gather—whether in homes, co-working spaces, or even pubs. Together, he and Pete talk about balancing depth and width in ministry, why mission should shape your model, and how old rhythms like weekly communion can bring new life to a community on mission.

If you’ve ever wondered how to grow beyond your living room without losing authenticity—or how to make disciples in the middle of your neighborhood’s everyday spaces—this conversation will give you plenty to think about (and laugh about).

Highlights include:

Why consistency matters more than ever in podcasting and pastoring
Peyton’s vision for churches meeting in shared workspace
The real-world costs of renting schools and community centers
Blending centralized gatherings with scattered micro-churches
Taking communion seriously in every setting
A reminder that the mission always dictates the model

CPP #615 – Christian Mungai on People Are the Wealth

Mon, 03 Nov 2025 06:00:00 -0600

In this powerful conversation, Peyton Jones sits down with Christian Mungai, Global Movement Pastor at Mariners Church and author of People Are the Wealth, to explore how the global landscape of missions is shifting — and why that’s good news for the Church.

Born in Kenya and now serving in California, Christian shares his remarkable family story that traces the full circle of missions: from the Scottish missionaries who reached his grandfather to his own call as a missionary to North America. Together, he and Peyton unpack how the center of Christianity has moved to the Global South, what that means for Western churches, and how a new era of interdependent mission is emerging.

They discuss the African proverb behind his book title — “Money can make you rich, but only people make you wealthy” — and why relationships, not results, are the true measure of ministry. You’ll also hear the surprising story of how Mariners Church adopted Kenya’s Mizizi discipleship process, transforming it into Rooted, now used by thousands of churches worldwide.

This episode challenges every leader to rethink mission as collaboration rather than conquest, to trade independence for interdependence, and to rediscover what it means to love people as the greatest wealth of all.

CPP #614 – Carey Nieuwhof on Innovation, Humility, and the Future of the Church

Mon, 27 Oct 2025 06:00:00 -0600

In this episode, Chestly Lunday sits down with Carey Nieuwhof — pastor, author, and host of The Carey Nieuwhof Leadership Podcast — to talk about how churches and leaders can stay healthy and innovative in a rapidly changing world.

Carey unpacks why most great ideas have a five-to-seven-year shelf life, how leaders can navigate the “second S-curve” without losing their identity, and why humility and curiosity are key to long-term influence. They dive into the future of church models — from micro-expressions to digital communities — and explore how to build platforms that serve a mission instead of egos.

Whether you’re a pastor, entrepreneur, or digital innovator, this conversation will challenge you to rethink what growth, character, and calling look like in the new era of church leadership.

CPP #613 – What to Do When Your Disciple Making Leads to Multiplication

Mon, 20 Oct 2025 06:00:00 -0600

What happens when your disciple-making actually works?

In this episode, Pete and Peyton dive deep into Discipology—Peyton’s newest project and framework for mobilizing every believer. Forget the buzzwords about “multiplication.” This is about what Jesus actually did: sending ordinary people two by two to change the world.

Peyton unpacks the three rhythms of disciple-making—Teaching, Time, and Tactics—and explains why most churches stop short of the third.

CPP #608 – Rethinking Poverty with Brian Fikkert

Mon, 15 Sep 2025 06:00:00 -0600

What if the way we think about poverty is all wrong? In this episode, Chestly Lunday sits down with Brian Fikkert, co-author of When Helping Hurts and founder of the Chalmers Center, to unpack why many well-meaning church strategies can actually do more harm than good.

Brian shares his journey from economics professor to equipping churches around the world to serve the poor in ways that honor their dignity and relationships. Together, Chestly and Brian dig into questions like:

Why is poverty more than just a lack of material resources?
How can churches avoid treating symptoms and instead address the deeper, relational causes of poverty?
What does it look like to shift from building orphanages to strengthening families?
How can marketplace ministry and meaningful work become central to mission strategy?

Whether you’re a church planter, pastor, or just someone wrestling with how to serve the vulnerable in your community, this conversation will challenge and inspire you to rethink what it truly means to help without hurting.

Mon, 08 Sep 2025 06:00:00 -0600

Peyton unpacks the biblical distinction between being a witness and proclaiming the good news, while Pete draws parallels between evangelism and marketing—showing how principles of attention-grabbing can be leveraged without compromising the message.

Together, they discuss how church planters can avoid the trap of Pharisaical call-outs, enter the conversations people are already having, and use digital tools wisely to connect real people with the hope of Jesus.

CPP #606 – Rewriting the Missions Playbook with Jacob Lierz

Mon, 25 Aug 2025 06:00:00 -0600

In this episode, Chestly Lunday sits down with Jacob Lierz, Missions Pastor at LifeMission Church in Kansas City, to challenge conventional thinking on global missions. Jacob shares his powerful journey—from becoming a Christian at his home church to planting a church in a refugee camp in Djibouti, and now leading a reimagined missions strategy that prioritizes family-based care over institutional orphanages.

They unpack the uncomfortable truths behind short-term trips, the harmful unintended consequences of orphanage-based missions, and why local churches need a new framework for global outreach. Jacob offers a compelling call to action for church planters: don’t delay global engagement. Prayer, generosity, and sending are part of your church’s DNA from day one.

They also talk about reverse culture shock, raising globally-minded kids, and how poverty in the developing world compares to American need. Whether you’re planting in the inner city or training teams for Nepal, this episode will stretch your perspective—and maybe your travel budget.Resources and Links Mentioned in this Episode:

Mon, 11 Aug 2025 06:00:00 -0600

In this wide-ranging, rabbit-trail-rich episode, Peyton and Pete go full Loveline-meets-Lancashire-hotpot. What starts with a nostalgic nod to late-night radio quickly unravels into a theological deep dive covering Jordan Peterson’s spiritual journey, why Wesleyan theology still matters, and how different “gospels” throughout church history reflect the multi-faceted diamond of salvation.

Peyton shares why he moved from Calvinism to Free Methodism (spoiler: it’s not for the branding) and how resurrection power is the part we’ve left out of modern soteriology. Pete drops a powerful recap of Free Burma Rangers—a documentary about frontline faith, radical sacrifice, and the gospel lived out under fire.

Oh yeah, and they cover Comic-Con access tips, real-time church planter giving strategies, and a whole lot of this and that along the way.

From hilarious misadventures with a British dog to profound reflections on the sovereignty of God, Peyton walks us through a surprising chain of events that began with a simple Starbucks conversation—and continues to ripple through a church planting movement.

Then, in light of John MacArthur’s passing, Peyton and Pete offer a thoughtful (and sometimes blunt) reflection on his legacy: the strengths, the blind spots, and what every leader can learn from a life of bold teaching and fierce convictions. Along the way, they explore how the APEST framework helps us stay balanced and avoid letting our strengths become our downfall.

CPP #602 – Nick Hall on Evangelism

Mon, 28 Jul 2025 06:00:00 -0600

In this episode of the Church Planter Podcast, Chestly Lunday interviews Nick Hall—evangelist, author, and founder of Pulse—about how to reach the next generation with the gospel. Nick shares stories of calling, risk, and revival, including how a simple prayer on a college campus turned into a nationwide movement to call young people back to Jesus.

Chestly and Nick talk about the hunger they're seeing in Gen Z, why evangelism needs to be bold and relational, and how church planters can lean into prayer and obedience rather than platform-building. It’s a vulnerable and hope-filled conversation about dreaming big and starting small.

You’ll hear:

How to step into a calling before you feel “ready”
What Gen Z is really looking for in the church
Why the future of evangelism will look more like community than celebrity

CPP #601 – Larry Walkemeyer on Being a River Church

Mon, 21 Jul 2025 06:00:00 -0600

What if your church stopped trying to be a lake and became a river instead?

In this episode, Peyton Jones and Pete Mitchell sit down with Larry Walkemeyer, longtime pastor of Light & Life Christian Fellowship and the author of The River Church. Larry shares the radical vision God gave him and his wife Deb: instead of growing bigger, their church would grow deeper and wider by sending. That vision turned 39 parking spots into 33 church plants.

Larry unpacks the biblical inspiration behind the river metaphor (Ezekiel 47), the ego-surrendering challenges of multiplication, and how prayer, generosity, and Spirit-led leadership shaped a culture of movement. Along the way, he shares powerful stories—from sending a former gang member to plant a thriving church, to watching a seemingly “failed” plant bear unexpected fruit on Capitol Hill.

If you're a church planter or pastor dreaming of a multiplying movement, this conversation will stir your spirit and expand your imagination.

In this episode of the Church Planter Podcast, Chestly Lunday sits down with worship leader and songwriter Robbie Seay to explore one of the most overlooked aspects of church planting: worship.

CPP #597 – Joshua Branham on What Are You Waiting For?

Mon, 23 Jun 2025 06:00:00 -0600

God has a pattern of using young and inexperienced people to do his work...and yet we rarely do the same. More often than not, we require leaders and church planters to have many years of experience before we give them any responsibility. The result? The average age of pastors is steadily increasing and, eventually, our leadership pipelines will dry up completely.

Joshua Branham explains that the solution is to look for character and competency instead of age, and then provide ongoing support as opposed to loading all of the training on the front end.

Mon, 21 Apr 2025 06:00:00 -0600

What happens when someone dies and comes back? In this episode, Chestly Lunday sits down with Eric Bennett, creator of the Round Trip Death podcast, who has interviewed hundreds of people who have experienced near-death experiences (NDEs).

Together, Chestly and Eric unpack how NDEs are “more real than real” to those who experience them and why Gen Z is especially drawn to experiential faith. They discuss the role of Jesus in many of these accounts, how pastors can wisely walk with those who've had such experiences, and how to navigate stories that might not fit neatly into traditional theological boxes.

The Fully-Funded Church Planter #1 – Challenges in Support Raising

Wed, 29 Jan 2025 06:00:00 -0600

In partnership with Reliant, we're launching a new series that tackles one of the biggest obstacles in church planting: money.

We often discuss new church models for reaching a shifting cultural landscape, but those new models sometimes require new funding models. Raising hundreds of thousands of dollars that starts a three-year sustainability countdown might not be the best way forward for everyone. So Chestly and Jon Crawford discuss new ways to get the funding you need to accomplish the mission.

Mon, 27 Jan 2025 06:00:00 -0600

We all know that there are noticeable differences between generations, but understanding how to work together and lead across generational divides is now more important than ever. Millennials are increasingly taking over for Boomers and Gen X in church leadership and are navigating how to empower Gen Z for ministry at the same time.

Walter Kim, the president of the National Association of Evangelicals, joins Chestly Lunday for a conversation on how the political climate in the United States is impacting the future of evangelicalism. Whether we like it or not, evangelicalism has grown to have some negative connotations in the United States in spite of many of the good things evangelicals provide for society. As a result, we need to do the hard work of maintaining a listening and missionary posture that sees opportunities for the advancement of the gospel rather than political battlefields.

Mon, 02 Dec 2024 06:00:00 -0600

We live in a time where people are more apt to view others as enemies and treat each other poorly as a result. We reject the possibility of meaningful relationships and maintain a distorted, hostile view of the world. This impacts our ability to make discipleship, which is the primary relational mission of the church. Jim Wilder helps us understand the dynamics that cause us to enter "enemy mode" and how we can avoid it in this podcast episode.

CPP #565 – The Church's Problem with Discipleship

Mon, 30 Sep 2024 06:00:00 -0600

In most churches, discipleship is not getting us where we need to go. We still tend to think of discipleship as a program.

Mon, 16 Sep 2024 06:00:00 -0600

How your church uses digital technology is merely an optional outreach method, it's central to how the next generation builds relationships and engages with the world.

We're back with another Wednesday episode, the next in our Wednesday series on rethinking evangelism and reaching lost people.

Thu, 30 May 2024 11:19:00 -0600

Today's mini-episode from Robert is a short, deep dive into the good work of evangelism.

CPP #544 – How to Motivate People Towards Giving

Mon, 27 May 2024 06:00:00 -0600

Money is a touchy subject in churches, and with good reason. Too often we try to guilt people into giving, when we should be motivating them. In this episode, Pete and Peyton help explain how viewing giving as worship and mission is the biggest paradigm shift that we need to help people make, and they give some practical steps for how your church plant can begin to model that.

CPP #543: On Reaching Lost People (pt. 1)

Wed, 22 May 2024 00:00:00 -0600

Do you ever wonder if there's a better strategy (or any other strategy than the one you're using!) to reach lost people in your life in a way that feels authentic, kind, and not-cringy? For today's episode of CPP, Mat and Robert dig into this topic. They address cultural barriers to evangelism within the church, and shared personal experiences with engaging in spiritual dialogue with others, emphasizing non-confrontational, inclusive approaches. They also discuss strategies for evangelism specifically for church plants, focusing on creating a welcoming environment for sharing spiritual journeys, transitioning from casual to meaningful conversations, and building long term relationships.

If that's not enough, there will be more! This is most likely part one of a longer series, so come back next week for more thoughts on evangelism.

Mon, 20 May 2024 06:00:00 -0600

Praying may seem like Christianity 101, but our approach often needs to change to accommodate our lifestyle and personal growth. Instead of continuously being in relationship with God, we end up in self-reliance throughout most of our days. Peyton and Pete talk about how to reorient your life around prayer in this episode.

Mon, 06 May 2024 06:00:00 -0600

Everyone has an opinion in a church plant and there's nothing wrong with simply voicing it. However, some people will try to manipulate you into doing what they want, and you can't allow that sort of behavior to take hold and become the norm in a new church. In this episode, Peyton and Pete talk about the ways people may try to manipulate you and how to handle those kinds of interactions.

CPP #537 – Daniel Im on The Discipleship Opportunity

Mon, 29 Apr 2024 06:00:00 -0600

Churches have been focusing on two categories of people for decades: Christians and non-Christians. But what if that's too simplistic? Daniel Im believes we need to add one dimension to this mindset if we want to understand and reach the people in our communities.

Wed, 24 Apr 2024 00:00:00 -0600

As you're getting ready to plant your church (or in these early stages of church planting), what do you consider success? Sticking with ministry until the end? Establishing yourself as a reliable voice in your community? Having an impact on your neighborhood? Changing the culture?

Today, Robert and Mat dive into these questions, exploring the concept of

ministry for the long haul" in church planting, the challenges and benefits of church growth, and the reasons for planting churches in new areas. They talk through the attractional model versus a mission-focused model in church leadership, the importance of long-term community engagement, and the pros and cons of the 'launch large model' for church plant networks.

CPP #533 – How to Ensure That Your Church Plant Stays on Mission

Mon, 15 Apr 2024 06:00:00 -0600

When Jesus trained the Twelve, he was prepping them for the Great Commission. Believers have always been meant to go on mission, but mission tends to get left by the wayside after a church plant gets going. How can you prevent that? Peyton Jones has some thoughts in this episode.

For today's episode of the Church Planter Podcast, Robert is live with Chris Backert, pastor, author, the senior director of Fresh Expressions NA, and leader in the Ascent movement. The two talk all things mission and evangelical witness.

Wed, 03 Apr 2024 00:00:00 -0600

CPP #528: Missional Outreach and Church Planting, 1/2

Wed, 27 Mar 2024 00:00:00 -0600

No matter where you are in the church planting journey, finding new, simple, creative ways to reach your neighborhood is tricky (and vital.) We get stuck in our same rhythms, and wait for people to come to us, when we are the ones called to be missional and move out of our comfort zone to where the people actually are.

In the first of two episodes on Missional Outreach and church planting, Mat and Robert cover a variety of pain points, from the importance of community and authenticity over promotional tactics, the failure of traditional methods and the need for a new approach in reaching families with the Christian message, and tell the story of how their church found their way through, with a new outreach program called Made For This Sports and Arts Camp.

CPP #527 – Gathering on Mission

Mon, 25 Mar 2024 06:00:00 -0600

Today, we usually associate the idea of mission with scattering, or being "out there." On the flip side, we usually associate worship with the times we gather. But Jesus' ministry didn't look like that. Jesus gathered and scattered people on mission. In this episode, Peyton and Pete talk about what it looks like to make your church gatherings a missional function.

CPP #522: Church Planting and Real Estate

Wed, 06 Mar 2024 00:00:00 -0600

When you're thinking about planting a church, what aspects of the process make you panic? Budget? People? Building? What if you didn't actually need to panic (and what if you didn't actually need a building the way you think you do?) Today, Robert and Mat are talking all about Church Planting and Real Estate–the challenges of finding suitable spaces to meet, setting up a mobile church, and the changing significance of physical location and signage for church planting. We'll be back with a part two of this topic soon–focusing on when to seek and establish a more "permanent" space for a church.

CPP #521 – Microchurches

Mon, 04 Mar 2024 06:00:00 -0600

Microchurch is one of ministry's buzzwords today, but there are many debates over what it is and how it works. In this episode, Peyton proposes that microchurch is a function rather than a model. Any church could utilize microchurch, and it would likely help them reach the lost.

Mon, 05 Feb 2024 06:00:00 -0600

We live in a world where digital tools and platforms are a necessary part of life, and the brutal reality is that the Church's methodology has failed to keep pace with the rate of change in the rest of the world. We are unable to engage with the next generation.

Despite this, the opportunity to create digital community and reach the lost is huge. People long for connection. In this episode, Chestly Lunday helps us chart a way forward so that we can reach people where they're at, in ways they are already used to connecting with each other.

CPP #514 – Fidelity, Sexuality, and Addressing Cultural Norms

Mon, 22 Jan 2024 06:00:00 -0600

The Church today is often woefully behind on conversations surrounding things like pornography, sexuality, and the ways young people get entrapped by Satan. But instead of ignoring it, church planters need to address issues head-on so that the people in our churches are prepared for what they walk into everyday. In this episode, Peyton and Pete talk about some of the new ways young people are falling into sexual sin, and what we can do about it.

CPP #487 – Reaching the Youth

Mon, 21 Aug 2023 06:00:00 -0600

If there's one demographic that Satan doesn't want you to reach, it's the youth. They are the key to multiplication. Unfortunately, we've bought into the lies that you have to reach adults to be successful. That's where the legitimacy and money is. But movement potential is found in the next generation, and if we want to reach the lost, we have to start by reaching the youth in front of us.

CPP #459 - The Fifth Monday Episode: APEST Layered Throughout Scripture

Mon, 01 May 2023 06:00:00 -0600

The APEST roles (Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Shepherd, Teacher) aren't leadership positions in a church, but rather a lens through which we see the mission, activities, and function of the body of Christ.

Wed, 19 Apr 2023 00:00:00 -0600
