Ep 17: Ecosystems, Not Programs: Discipleship Among the Everyday with Bryan Sallee

In this episode, Lindsay talks with Bryan Sallee, a pastor in Eagle River, Alaska, about what it really takes to cultivate a culture of discipleship in the everyday life of the church. From the challenges of small church leadership to the power of team-based ministry, Bryan shares what he's learning about adaptive leadership, navigating conflict, and building trust. Takeaways Adaptive challenges can’t be solved with yesterday’s strategies.  Discipleship isn’t a pipeline, it’s an ecosystem.  Transformation is best measured through stories Field Note: What Are You Willing to Do Within You? In ministry, it’s easy to chase the big idea. To look out at the future, name the vision, and start sprinting toward it. But what if the real work starts with this question: What are you willing to do within you? As Eugene Peterson says, this is a long obedience in the same direction. And that kind of obedience doesn’t come quickly.   Resources and links Bryan’s church website: https://skylinefamily.com/ Follow SLI: @spiritualleadershipinc This episode is brought to you by Spiritual Leadership, Inc Head to spiritual-leadership.org to take a look at resources for ministry leaders.
