S5 | Ep 22 - Built to Last | Our 2025 Church of the Year Winner

In this episode of the Momentum Ministry Partners Podcast, Eric sits down with Clancy Cruise and Jeremey Bury, the pastors behind Marysville Grace, Momentum's 2025 Church of the Year. Together, they share the story of Marysville Grace from its early days as a church plant to becoming a thriving, multiplying church rooted in trust, unity, and long-term faithfulness. Clancy reflects on what it looks like to plant a church, raise up leaders from within, and remain on staff with humility after handing off the lead pastor role. Jeremey walks through his unexpected journey from worship pastor to lead pastor, and how God consistently confirmed each step along the way. This conversation dives deep into healthy leadership transition, the difference between preferences and convictions, and why building trust through humility, repentance, and patience matters more than chasing trends. If you're a pastor or ministry leader navigating succession, developing young leaders, or longing for a church culture built on multiplication rather than ego, this episode offers practical wisdom and real encouragement.
