God is at work throughout our communities and in the lives of all people. In my work as a pastor and pioneer of new things, I get to work with, coach, and learn from others, tilling soil, planting seeds and praying for rain as we dig in and engage our communities for the mission of God. Finding Common Ground moves us to be present in the places where space might be cultivated for connection and relationship that becomes rooted in the Christian community. Join me as we share stories from the field in the Common Ground Podcast.

Michael has pioneered multiple Fresh Expressions from his once small declining church and has recaptured the Wesley’s vision in truly seeing the world as his parish. We discuss how he became a part of the FX movement, what he has learned from his failures, and what FX looks like in a pandemic world.
