Jason, Rob & Courtney have a lively discussion with one of their first guests on the podcast (see episode #6), the one and only Rev. Dr. Twanna Henderson! Twanna co-founded New Beginnings Church with her husband 25 years ago. It has grown from 12 people in a Bible Study to a thriving church with thousands attending each week. She is a gifted leader, teacher and communicator who not only leads at the church, she also leads in her community. She is a licensed Attorney who served thirteen years as a Civil Court Magistrate Judge for Mecklenburg County in Charlotte, NC. Currently, Twanna is serving her second term as a City Commissioner for Mint Hill.
Tell us what you think and how you have engaged both political issues and the community in general!
Jason, Rob, & Courtney have a great conversation with Pastor Nick Daleo of Proving Ground Church in Lakehurst, NJ. His process of becoming a pastor and teacher is pretty unique, but in the process he learned some great lessons about authenticity and finding your voice as a leader. Whether you have been a lead pastor for decades, are just starting out, or you’re a leader in your job or community (or home!), you will find some gold in today’s conversation!
Pastor Nick has been in ministry for over 20 years before planting Proving Ground Church in 2020. As PGC’s lead pastor, Pastor Nick is the primary communicator on Sunday Mornings. Pastor Nick oversees the entire staff and church operations and seeks to stay true to PGC’s mission of “Loving people where they’re at because Christ loves us where we are.” Pastor Nick serves diligently with our district, Converge Mid-Atlantic to coach other church planters and discuss issues around church leadership, biblical diversity, marriage longevity, and more. Nick and his wife Tracey have three grown children.
Rob & Jason sat down with the rising star, comedian Andrew Stanley before he headlined Comedy Night in Columbus, Ohio in September. Andrew grew as the grandson of the legendary Charles Stanley and son of the nationally known Andy Stanley. The conversation is filled with laughter and great insights for pastors and leaders who want to help their kids find their God-given calling.
Andrew Stanley grew up as a homeschooled preacher’s kid, so it was unlikely that he would ever find love, become a comedian, or contribute to society in a meaningful way. Two out of three is not too bad! Now a husband and fast-rising stand-up comedian, Andrew has been performing all over the country. He was selected as the New Face of Comedy at Montreal’s prestigious Just For Laughs Comedy Festival and he appeared on Nate Bargatze’s “The Showcase” on Nateland in 2023.

Jason & Rob had a lively conversation with comedian, magician, and inspirational speaker The Great Scott (Scott Francis). Scott was in town to open Comedy Night at Press Church in Columbus, OH. They talked about how to have a great marriage, how to enjoy every moment, and how to lead people well.
