Episode Description

There might be someone in your Bible study who keeps asking uncomfortable questions about church.

- Why aren’t more people being reached?
- Why do we keep doing church this way?

And you might be tempted to shut them down.

In this episode, Scott Sanders and Derek Hanna talk about the early signs of future church planters — including a holy dissatisfaction with church as usual and a deep conviction that the gospel should be reaching more people than it is.

They’re often the ones who unsettle leaders, question systems, and refuse to be satisfied with maintenance ministry.

They might be mistaken as difficult.

They might be future planters.

A sharp listen for pastors and leaders who want to discern the difference — for the sake of more people hearing about Jesus.
