Ministry Mirror

What happens when you are walking so closely with God will serving Him in ministry, and still, everything around you crumbles?

In this episode, Dan shares a personal struggle that is happening currently in his life as things begin to shift in the role of the company he currently serves.

Since beginning this Podcast, we have discussed all aspects of our life since entering full time ministry. In this episode, we talk through some of the good and bad and answer the question....Was It Worth It?

This week, we take a turn away from our normal content and we spend some time with our son and daughter-in-law to discuss the life and legacy of Charlie Kirk

In this episode, members of the original Dream Team come together and talk about those early days nearly 20 years ago when Lubbock Impact was just an idea!

This episodes spends more time on the beginning days of the Medical Clinic. How everything began as a "doc in a box" to one of the most state of the art free medical clinics today.

The journey continues as we reminisce about those early days when Lubbock Impact was little more than a concept. But oh how God showed Himself at every turn.

We continue to to tell the origin story of Lubbock Impact, discussing some of the amazing things that only God could have done.

This starts a multi-week series of telling the story of the beginning of Lubbock Impact. Lubbock Impact has become among the most important ministries serving the working poor in Lubbock. It all started with a crazy vision in the middle of the night.

This week we discuss all the upcoming topics for Season 2

This episodes picks up from last time as Barbie and Dan discuss all the places they both worked through the years while leading churches on the mission field and in some rural settings. Many in ministry must serve bi-vocationally, meaning aside form leading in the pulpit, the Lord can often provide other means of having the income necessary to raise a family.

In this episode, we take you on a journey through the many roles we've taken on while serving in ministry, especially during our church planting days. We open up about the sacrifices that come with following God’s call—how sometimes, it means stepping into unexpected jobs to provide for our family. Listen in as we share how trusting God to provide, even in the most unconventional ways, has shaped our ministry and our lives.

Barbie and I sit down together to share a little about our time in Pennsylvania. It was here that we were assigned to restart a church, rather that start a new church plant. The time in Pennsylvania was one of the most active times we saw the Lord at work in all of our ministry, but it was not without attacks from the enemy. Today, we are going to share how a group had secretly put out a message to have me killed because of what God was doing through the work in this little church.

This weeks episode is not a regular episode. In this 4 minute episode, I explain why we did not drop what should be episode 8.

This week, we dive into the details of the demonic activity that we experienced during the first place we served after seminary. Dan experienced a physical attack that still cannot be explained except that pure evil had become present in the middle of the work that God was doing.

Join us as we walk through 20 years of the places (literally the homes) where we lived. A Seminary house, rent homes, an RV and even a couple of homes we owned. This is a light-hearted episode remembering all the places that God provided for us to live and raise our family.

This week, we talk with Dr. Adam Greenway. Dr. Greenway was the president of the prestigious Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. After a short 3 year tenure, he stepped down from what some would consider the opportunity of a lifetime. Dr. Greenway offers his experience and wisdom to speak to us about those difficult times that arise when you never expect it.

This week, we share our experience while we were pastoring at a small, rural church in West Texas. We learned a lot, messed up a lot, and also had some amazing victories in Jesus!

In this episode, Barbie and I reflect on years of fun, light-hearted memories of our time spent serving the local church. Be ready to laugh because this episode was a lot of fun to make and we hope that it is fun for you to listen!

This week, we talk about the importance of prioritizing your family when you serve the local church. We further share some real experiences we had with some really ugly church people regarding our children when they were too young to understand what was happening.

In this episode we share with you our personal surrender to Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. You may be surprised to hear that one of us had a very unique timing as to the moment God extended His Saving Grace!

In this inaugural episode, we go back to the beginning and discuss the journey from full-time active duty military to Seminary. We took our two small children, loaded up a moving truck, and began a huge step of faith with nothing to rely on but our amazing God, which always proves to be more than enough.
