Welcome to The Morning After Ministry Show, where we’re still recovering from Sunday… and probably will be until Wednesday.This week: • Frank filled in for Andrew at Safety Harbor—and didn’t just bring the Word, he brought the crowd! (Did he charge admission?) • Andrew worshiped Lutheran-style for the first time ever at his son’s graduation. Spoiler alert: there was incense, chanting, and maybe a little bit of liturgical envy. • Tim had a Sunday marathon—an XL sermon, new members class, and possibly a spiritual cramp or two by the end of it.We’re talking pulpit swaps, denominational detours, and just how long a Sunday can really be. Pour another cup of coffee and join us for some laughs, some lessons, and a whole lot of real talk from the trenches of ministry.

It’s just Andrew and Tim today, fresh off Mother’s Day Sunday and feeling all the end-of-school-year energy (and exhaustion). With things slowing down just a bit in church life, we’re reflecting on family rhythms, ministry moments, and how to keep showing up well when the calendar finally gives us a breather.

This week we’re talking about:

• Mother’s Day services and honoring moms well

• New babies and how we navigate hospital/home visits in a Millennial & Gen Z world

• End-of-year parenting chaos (seriously, how many awards days are too many?)

• What to do when a church member lovingly rebukes you—and how to receive it with humility

• Why May might be the sneakiest busy season in ministry

Grab your lukewarm coffee and join us for the Morning After!

This week’s episode is brought to you by turbulence, terminal floors, and the Lord’s Day mercies.

Andrew just returned (barely) from a denominational conference in Mound Bayou, MS. What should have been a routine ministry trip turned into a saga of emergency landings, missed connections, and one unforgettable overnight nap on the floor of the Charlotte airport. He rolled into church at 8:45am Sunday morning—rumpled, redeemed, and ready(ish) to preach by 10.

Meanwhile, Tim took his talents to Las Vegas for a side gig—don’t worry, it was all above board (he swears), and he only lost time, not tithe money. Also, it’s the anniversary he almost died.And in a plot twist no one saw coming, Frank stepped into the pulpit at a church in Tampa, bringing the Word while the rest of us were bringing snacks to gate C12.

As always, we’re here to recap Sunday, laugh at our Mondays, and remind you that the Lord can use all things—even delayed flights and a stiff neck from sleeping under fluorescent lights—for His glory.
