Thoughts on the Value and Leadership of Rural Churches
While things are under construction, especially in the Methodist movement, now's a good time to re-think the way pastors are deployed and the role they should be expected to play in the congregation. It is also a good time for congregations to re-think the role of every member. If you want to receive notification when new videos are posted, be sure to like and subscribe.

Love Local: An Interview with The Burnettes
Bill and Charla Burnette, husband and wife, are both serving rural churches in Tennessee. The congregation Charla is serving is more than double the size of Bill's two put together. However, no matter the size, they have found the joy of discipleship!
In this interview you'll hear how their congregations are thriving because they have fallen in love with Jesus largely through a hunger for scripture! Their testimonies affirm that instead of big time programing, the unique gift of rural ministry is authentic, loving connection in discipleship and ministry.
May you be encouraged by them and their stories.
