Episode 50 - Training & Mentoring Leaders with Dan Reiland

Merry Christmas from Jonny and Jeff to YOU and YOUR FAMILY! We are finishing up our first year of the 200churches Podcast and we could not be more happy and fulfilled! We've been able to share our hearts with you and encourage you as another small church pastor - and we hope that our blog and podcast has been exactly that - ENCOURAGING!

Today is Christmas Day, and we give you the final installment of our very long conversation with Dan "The Man" Reiland, aka, The Pastor's Coach. We used Dan's book, Amplified Leadership, as the basis for five podcast episodes, and if you haven't read it yet, click here and buy it for Kindle on Amazon. It would make a great pastoral ministry project for you for 2014 - to read and implement its principles into your 200church ministry. Read it with your ministerial group or pastor's fellowship and grow together!

We reference a short video by Michael Hyatt in this episode, where he explains the power of S.M.A.R.T. goals. You can find that by clicking here or on the picture below. We said on last week's episode that everyone knows what S.M.A.R.T. goals are, so we did not want to spend time talking about them. Then this week we received Michael Hyatt's video and we knew we needed to share it with you! 

PLEASE NOTE, this link is to Michael's landing page for his course called "5 Days To Your Best Year Ever." He offers three free videos and the second video is a great description of S.M.A.R.T. goals. To get the free videos, you just have to enter your email address. Michael absolutely promotes his course on the first and last videos, and while we think it would be a great course for a leader to take, we are not promoting it, nor is this an affiliate link for Michael... just a good suggestion!

On January 3 we start back up with our regular blog posts, sharing with you through blogging in a way that will be a step up from this past year. We hope you engage us and that we can make each other better as 200church pastors. We have finished our fall semester courses and are enjoying a two-week rest from academia!

Enjoy Episode 50 with Dan Reiland. We know you will! Next week, we will have Karl Vaters join us for the first episode of the New Year... can't wait!
