Listen "Rich’s Introduction to a “Narrow Way” of Ministry | Rich Villodas | PT 75 "
Episode Synopsis
Rich didn’t grow up as a Christian. Following Jesus means following Him along Jesus’ narrow way. Spiritual practices aren’t just an add-on to the way of Jesus. Rich Villodas presents a compelling theological vision for a church that focuses deeply on the formation of Jesus’ disciples. Rich also highlights the unique membership process at New Life Church, which emphasizes relational and spiritual formation over rapid growth. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of what it means to shepherd a weary world while maintaining theological integrity.Pre-Order The Narrow Way: https://www.richvillodas.com/the-narrow-path Timestamps: 01:58 Rich's Journey to Faith05:16 Early Ministry and Family Influence14:20 Monastic Influences and Leadership17:49 Contemplative Practices in Church Leadership24:57 Challenges and Reflections on Church Growth26:50 Conclusion and Encouragement for Pastors
