Revisiting Simple Church: What Worked, What Didn’t
About this episode
In 2006, "Simple Church" encouraged churches to streamline programming, clarify discipleship pathways, and focus on moving people toward spiritual maturity rather than filling calendars with activities. The book had a significant impact, shaping how thousands of pastors thought about ministry systems and structure. Nearly two decades later, Thom and Sam take a fresh look: What principles stood the test of time? What challenges emerged in practice? And how should churches apply "Simple Church" today in a ministry landscape that’s more complex, digital, and post-pandemic than ever?
