About the Podcast

The Executive Pastor Podcast helps church leaders think clearly, lead courageously, and move their teams toward radical alignment to the Great Commission.

Hosted by Doug Parks and Bart Rendel of Intentional Churches, each episode delivers practical, actionable conversations built specifically for the Executive Pastor, Director of Operations, or Church Administrator, the person behind the systems, teams, and momentum.

What you'll get

• Practical & Actionable, real-world strategies for church staffing, budgeting, and operations you can implement this week.
• Executive Pastor Focused, built for the unique challenges of the Executive Pastor role, not generic leadership advice.
• Great Commission Driven, pointed at measurable Kingdom impact, not just operational efficiency.

Who it's for

Executive Pastors, Directors of Operations, Ministers of Administration, Church Administrators, and Associate Pastors who carry staffing, budget, and systems responsibility for their church.
