The elders of FBC are currently leading about 40 members of the church through a discussion of The Trellis and the Vine. As elders, we found the book so helpful and clear that we wanted to share its insights with our people.
I just learned that Tony and Col, authors of the book, are posting a series of podcasts discussing issues related to the book. Thus far there are two discussions posted:
Trellis & Vine Talk 1–Not About Small Groups
In this first episode of Trellis & Vine Talk Tony and Col discuss—amongst other things— why the ideas in The Trellis and the Vine are not about small groups and one-to-one. Listen to it here, or download the file to catch up on it later.
Trellis & Vine Talk 2–Who Is Your Sheep?
This is the second episode of Trellis & Vine Talk, in which Tony and Col discuss discipleship gurus, what (or who) exactly is a lay pastor, a shepherds heart, and ministry of the word. Listen to it here, or download the file to catch up on it later.
Thanks to The Briefing for posting these! Enjoy!
