Bryan broadcasts from the road in Waterville, Maine as he was visiting the region and joining their weekend Men's Event called MC48... Men of Christ for 48 hours. He talks with Regional Director Andy Collar about his life growing up in Maine, the spiritual climate there and being patient with God's growth and expansion.

Bryan catches up with Sach Oliver, an Influencers leader in Northwest Arkansas, to talk about the Journey Movie update, to recap his leadership talk on Passions, Awesomeness and Needs and to hear the story of how God led him to purchase land north of Arkansas to build a Prayer Retreat Center. There are many lessons of faith and prayer and leadership in this power-packed podcast.

Bryan and Rocky discuss the importance God places on those who are appointed to be shepherds over His sheep. This is a high calling which requires the utmost integrity, purity and care. It is a check for us as leaders within Influencers, even for our Guides. But as God’s children, we are ALL sheep who have roles as Shepherds, in our families, in our businesses, in our spheres of influence, so this message applies to all of us.

Bryan interviews Dana Martin, from Bakersfield, CA, who talks about how The Journey saved her marriage and how she became one of the first Women’s Journey Guides at her church. She has become a strong disciple-maker and Journey Guide Mentor and has seen a movement of transformation and multiplication in her church. Dana talks about lessons learned and how she mentors her ladies into guiding. She has some great thoughts for all Journey Guides.

Bryan interviews Scott Lawson, Influencers Virtual Journey Director, about his recent health struggle and how this has tested his abiding relationship with Christ. As we say in The Journey, “Experience Trumps Theory.” This is an encouragement to anyone who wants to abide with Christ, but is struggling with something out of their control.

Bryan interviews Matthew Landis of Maine, a Gulf War veteran with a difficult past who finds hope and healing in Christ. Listen to this incredible, inspirational story of the power of abiding in Christ.

The last talk from the International Men’s Summit was about answering the call to serve Influencers. The calling to Jesus, to follow Jesus, to abide in Jesus and to make disciples are all non-negotiable, but there are some who are also called to serve God through Influencers. Sach Oliver, a trial attorney and leader in Northwest Arkansas, did a great job of challenging the men to find their place of service in ministry.

On Saturday night of the Men’s International Summit, we had a special celebration of our first 25 years and we had surprise guests. Bob Brown and Tony Elliott, two members of the original Journey group, were present, joined on stage by Rocky, Mark Sewell, Frank Khalil, Les Pearsey and Bryan Craig as they reminisced some of the early days of the ministry up until now. It was a beautiful tribute. Listen and enjoy.
