Thom and Sam have been around and pretty much seen it all in church ministry. Allow them to help you avoid pitfalls, and elevate your goals, for God’s glory. There is a larger mine of resources from the Church Answers website. We need it!

Unable to listen because some speakers are loud while others can hardly be heard. Great content though!

Have been listening to this podcast for a while and really enjoyed it at the beginning, but the longer it goes, the more I feel like I’m listening to an infomercial and them promote their sponsors

My ministry has benefited greatly from these podcasts. The topics are quite helpful- many “real life” kind of scenarios…things I really face (or might face in the future). This is a great equipping resource. And as for personal preference, the length is perfect. I enjoy the bullet points kind out...Read full review »

I enjoy the topics & guests they have on the podcasts. They offer practical advice in today’s world. Too much time is spent on family jokes & teasing. It is distracting from the important topic on-hand. If the content was not as good as it is I would stop listening.

Good information. Appreciate, very much, the show notes ... but there is no need for a co-host (who thinks he’s funny, interrupts guests, thinks his views are the greatest and shares inside jokes with his dad - the host). Just present the information and let whoever you are interviewing speak! ...Read full review »

Thank you for sharing wisdom and knowledge on all the topics you talk about the podcast. I enjoy as well listening your experiences in leadership:-)

One of the best most practical leadership podcasts out there. I find myself going back to episodes I’ve already listened to because the information Thom and his team provide is just that good.

I believe the podcast is great and I think Thom does an incredible job. Unfortunately it is not much different with everything else he does, it eventually leads back to a money making scheme for Thom. Great insight, great knowledge, even more information about how to help fund his next career...Read full review »

Then to took notes for myself and passed on the appropriate ones to different pastors at our church. Great content in...Read full review »

You get so much more than what you pay for here. My favorite podcast on leadership. Practical, insightful, and very helpful. I binge listen almost every day and have been for six months.

Thank you for having Daniel Im on to talk about No Silver Bullets - five small shifts that will transform your ministry. My favorite and most helpful points was changing the way we do New Member Training using a short video with summary and then following up witha Q & A in the classroom. ...Read full review »

I have been blessed by these podcasts. It makes me a better church member.
bigdogtheodore via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/01/17
I listen to a lot of podcasts, and I have to pick around. But Rainer on Leadership is one of the few I listen to ALL the episodes. It gives me good things to think through as pastor of a church. I recommend it for any leader.
PauGarDe2 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/25/17
As somenone who is replanting a church, this podcast helps me understand and think through how to lead my church to make much of Jesus and connect that to the ministries that we are trying to do. This helps us understand the mindset of those outside the church, and the mindset of our older...Read full review »

There is such a wealth of knowledge on this podcast. I love listening to Dr. Rainer and Jonathan and the banter between them. They always bring on great guest like Daniel Im to discuss strategies, systems, and “rezources” :). If you are a church planter, a Pastor, a church leader, or a lay person...Read full review »

Enjoy the broad spectrum of leadership insights here. Helpful for a lot of practical ministry topics, especially in things they teach in seminary (ie budgets, training volunteers, worship leading, etc). Detailed show notes always helpful also to go back to.

Excellent podcast. Hope to get the book soon! As a young pastor starting a homemissions work in rural New Brunswick Canada it was helpful!
Dcmckillop via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/11/17
Been listening for over a year now. Great content, good banter, and always focussed on bulding the Kingdom. They sometimes give away books from their guests... hint, hint.
spodriscoll via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/10/17
The discussions and tools given for church leaders are timely. Just what I need right when I need it. I appreciate the brevity of the podcasts. There are times the hosts get sidetracked with unrelated conversations creating a distraction, but still worth my time to listen.
edleml via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/10/17
Great interview with Daniel Im, No Silver Bullet. I learned that my way of thinking needs tweeking. I will get the book and fill in my notes. Great ideas and thoughts. Thanks guys for providing useful helps to our church.

These guys are short, sweet, and to the point. Their title is actually the content, and their heart is for the church of God. Thanks for the stats and the studies.

Love this podcast. After listening to a few episodes a few months ago, I went back and started at the beginning. I have now listened to the first 200 episodes, and working on catching up.

Thom does a wonderful job challenging, warning, and encouraging church leaders and members. This podcast has been a blessing to me over the past year, having gone through a very trying time in the ministry I eventually had to leave.

This is one of my favorite podcasts that I listen to every week.

Very useful info and would love to include the book in premarital counseling. Keep up the good work.

I am learning quite a lot from this podcast. Thankful for the fact that I can go back and listen to old episodes to continue to learn instead of having to wait until the next episode is released! Thanks for this great resource!

I know you guys like to keep it to 22-24 minutes but if I had any suggestion it would be to go a little longer. You all have enough great info that I’d happily listen to another 10-20 minutes.

The conversational format is very refreshing. It is a nice break from the strict interview approach many podcasts use. Drawing on practical experience with a biblical foundation is very useful.
