Discerning God's Call and Transitioning Churches with Kyle Harnett
/01:25:52/E15
Hearing God's voice is hard - it's even harder when you have the wrong mindset. In this episode, we talk with Kyle Harnett about his transition process from leading a small, nimble multiplying church plant to leading a very large church. We also discuss spiritual renewal and mobilizing the church for mission. Kyle is the Lead Pastor of Foothills Alliance Church in Calgary, Alberta. To learn more about the church or to contact Kyle, visit www.myfoothills.ca.
In the pre-show, Rob, Dan, and Geoff pretend it's January (when it's actually December). They discuss New Year's resolutions and book recommendations - and delve into Geoff's unique approach to parenting.

He has been a worship pastor at churches in Ottawa, Winnipeg, and now Moose Jaw. Geoff is a songwriter, music producer, and recording artist, as well as the author of “Mountaintop,” a satirical novel about travails of a young worship pastor. Geoff has been married to Pearl for 32 years and they have three sons: Pierce, Gideon who is married to Tiana, and Preston.
