Do you wonder what it would take to turn a culture from toxic to flourishing? Today, we talk with a leader who did just that.
Today’s podcast touches the heart of why we do what we do at Best Christian Workplaces. Our conversation is with a leader whose work is all about facilitating the transformation of at-risk kids, aged 5 to 17.
When he joined the organization, he was faced with fixing a toxic workplace with disengaged employees. Our conversation is about how he moved their workplace from toxic to flourishing. We know it isn’t easy to transform a workplace, but it’s worth the effort when you get to see your employees flourish and deepen their commitment to the mission and vision of your organization, particularly when kids are involved.

Are skinny jeans and fog machines at the heart of your church's growth strategy? Well, who are you turning to for help? And what are the best strategies for growth? Today's show with pastor and author, Jim Cymbala of the Brooklyn Tabernacle, answers your questions. Listen in as he fans the flame to renew your calling to finish the work that you have received.
Serving as a pastor or church leader has never been easy. But recent data show a high level of fatigue and discouragement among pastors – and many are leaving the ministry. In fact, in a recent survey, Barna Research says that 38% of pastors have thought about quitting full-time ministry in the past year.
How can you as a pastor or Christian leader find renewed passion for your calling, and regular refreshment, so you aren’t serving on empty?
Today’s podcast will highlight ways to fan the flame of the calling God has placed in you, so you can continue to serve.
I’m delighted to welcome Jim Cymbala, Pastor of Brooklyn Tabernacle. Jim has been a pastor for more than 50 years, and along with leading Brooklyn Tabernacle, he has a heart for encouraging and equipping other pastors. His most recent book is Fan the Flame.

Having a team filled with outstanding talent is a game-changer for any organization. Today, we talk with a couple of culture leaders in a large church who have leveraged their culture to be relentlessly selective in creating a staff that is humble, hungry, and healthy. To learn how listen in!
In 2016, Outreach Magazine named Traders Point Christian Church in Indianapolis, Indiana as one of the "100 Fastest-Growing?Churches?in America." Such growth alone is significant. Yet, there's another reason to celebrate. I call it the hidden story of another kind of growth that can inspire churches everywhere. It’s a story you need to hear.
With me right now are the two best people I know who are ready to reveal this hidden story. Kristen Miller is Culture & Development Director at Traders Point Christian Church. With Kristen is Emily Hoover, Talent Manager at Traders Point. Kristen and Emily, welcome to the Flourishing Culture Podcast.

Would you like to be led more by Jesus, live and lead more like Jesus, and lead more to Jesus? Today's podcast is just for you.
Sometimes in life, we can lose our wonder. It can happen gradually or overnight. In talking with many Christian leaders struggling through the past year, I hear about a lot of people being exhausted, tired, thinking about retiring early, even quitting. Some have described it as ‘the dark night of the soul’ where there has been an absence of the presence of God in our lives.
In the next few minutes, I want to give you a new kind of pathway so you can live more like Jesus—and perhaps renew the sense of His presence, especially in your work. And I’ve just the person to take us on this adventure.
Dr. Steve Brown, President of Arrow Leadership and author of a very timely, engaging book titled, Jesus Centered: Focusing on Jesus in a Distracted World. Steve, welcome to the Flourishing Culture Podcast.

Have you ever wondered how important improving your workplace culture is? Well, today our guest says of all the changes that you can make in your organization there's one that matters more than all the others—the culture of your organization. Listen in as this pastor describes how working on cultural health is actually at the core of Christian discipleship for any leader.
One of the things I enjoy most about my job is getting to know innovative leaders that are making a difference for the kingdom. One of those leaders is Jeff Lockyer, the Lead Pastor at Southridge Community Church in St. Catharines, Ontario in the Niagara Region.
Jeff has just published a very thoughtful book called Finding Our Way: Reclaiming the First-Century Church in the Twenty-First Century. It’s a fascinating story of how a church transformed for the next generation. I particularly like the way Jeff walks his readers through the underlying theology behind some of their decisions, including their focus on workplace culture. Whether you are a church leader, a leader of a Christian non-profit, or a Christian business leader, you'll find our discussion inspirational.

Do you feel discouraged because the realities of life have caused you to be disillusioned? Well, maybe you feel cynical. We've seen visionaries succumb to cynicism in these times, or at least cause them to coast. Today, our guests provide hope for us by calling this disillusionment a gift. Listen in as they talk about moving past the false hope of idealism to discover true Christian hope.
Those of us in leadership at Christian organizations feel a call from God to serve, and also a vision for how our organization can make a difference in the world. That sense of vision and passion motivates our work. But what do you do when idealism hits unmet expectations and painful experiences? How do you lead forward through difficulties? Our guests today will give us insight into this important issue as we look for hope that will endure.

Do you feel your organization’s approach to strategic planning is inflexible and ineffective? Do you feel like you’re missing untapped opportunities? Well, listen in as today’s guest suggests a new counterintuitive approach to traditional planning, an approach that shows you how unexpected opportunities may be the key to your future success.
There is a leadership adage that says, “If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.” But what if there’s a different paradigm of leadership that embraces the need to be flexible rather than strictly adhering to a plan? Certainly, the future we lead into will not look like the past, which impacts our ability to plan. Today’s podcast might challenge our thinking and practices, but it will also give us insight into opportunities and possibilities that God brings our way.

We see that the world is changing rapidly and that what worked in the past may not work in the future. But what are the skills and qualities that emerging leaders need so they can lead into the future? This podcast will have clear takeaways for those who are stepping up as aspiring leaders.

But how does an organization help build both character and competence into your people so your organization will flourish in the future? Well, listen in as we have an engaging conversation with a church leader on that very topic.
The character and integrity of leaders are essential for a healthy, thriving church or ministry. We will explore the topics of leadership character, trust, and inspiration in today’s episode. Inspirational leadership is one of the eight drivers of employee engagement that we have identified at Best Christian Workplaces Institute. Our guest today is part of a large multi-site church that exhibits inspirational leadership.
I’m delighted to welcome Craig Walker. He is the human resources director at NewSpring Church, a thriving multi-site church in South Carolina. NewSpring has been participating in Best Christian Workplaces Institute employee engagement surveys since 2014.
