E075: Church Planting Starts at the Dinner Table

In this episode of the COGO Podcast, R.W. Moody sits down with Pastor Rebecca Palmatier to talk about faith, discipleship, and the adventure of church planting in rural West Virginia. Rebecca shares her journey of coming to know Jesus as a teenager through the influence of her father’s transformed life and how God later called her family to step into the unknown by rebuilding a struggling church and investing deeply in a small community. Through honest stories and personal experiences, she reflects on what it looks like to trust God when you feel completely out of your element.As the conversation unfolds, Rebecca explains how church planting stripped ministry back to its simplest and most important mission: making disciples. She and R.W. discuss the importance of relationships, hospitality, and living intentionally among the people God has called you to serve. From hosting “Dinner Church” gatherings in the park to learning how to respond quickly to God’s leading, Rebecca offers practical encouragement for leaders who want to make a genuine Kingdom impact. This episode is a refreshing reminder that discipleship is less about building platforms and more about faithfully loving people one relationship at a time.For more information about where Rebecca serves, visit: https://www.creeksidewss.com/Don't forget you can WATCH on YOUTUBE!Thanks for listening and watching!
