How To Find the Right Church for Me? (Troy "PE" Evans)

from Faith Under Construction Podcast · host Our Daily Bread Ministries

Ever had to “shop around” for a church before? Definitely not fun. It’s easy to come up with a long list of must-haves for a certain place of worship to become our church home—and it’s even easier to jump ship when something doesn’t meet our expectations. But is there anything about how we choose our church that should be non-negotiable? Is it all up to our priorities and preferences? Join our conversation with Rasool, Christin, and special guest Troy “PE” Evans as we turn to Scripture and consider what truly makes the right church the best fit.   Guest Bio:  Troy Evans is the Founder and CEO of Nitrogen Urban Network, an organization dedicated to equipping pastors and leaders in under-resourced communities to build healthy, multiplying churches. With more than two decades of leadership experience, Troy specializes in leadership development, strategic planning, and sustainable ministry systems. Troy is also the architect of the THRIVE Initiative, a multi-year leadership development model designed to help churches move from survival to sustainability through holistic discipleship and measurable impact.   Troy previously launched and pastored four urban churches in Michigan and has trained and coached leaders nationally. His work focuses on practical execution, multiplication, and long-term community transformation. In addition to his ministry leadership, Troy is the founder of SimpleNow, an AI-focused training and consulting organization that helps small and mid-sized leaders integrate artificial intelligence into training, planning, and operations.   Troy is an author, speaker, and strategist committed to helping leaders combine faith, structure, and technology to produce measurable results. He resides in Michigan with his wife, LaDawn.  Verses Mentioned:  Acts 2:42–27 Acts 6:1-4 Luke 24:13-35 Psalm 27:10 Acts 15:36–41 Featured Links:  Keep the conversation going with the Discussion Guide from this episode! Connect with Troy Evans on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok Faith Under Construction Landing Page: https://www.odbm.org/en/voices/faith-under-construction VOICES Community: https://www.odbm.org/en/voices Follow VOICES on Instagram
