About this listen
What does strategic leadership look like in a church context? In this episode, Chris Goldman, Lead Pastor for Northwest Church (Lynnwood, WA) shares how vision, collaboration, and long‑term thinking shape healthy congregations. Chris shares how his ministry journey, including his training in business and marketing, have influenced the way he approaches organizational strategy in the church. He unpacks the difference between preaching and leading, why strategy can’t be crafted in isolation, and how ministers can build teams that think and plan beyond Sunday mornings. Chris also walks through the Northwest Church’s bold strategic shift: selling its campus, purchasing a vacant fitness gym, and transforming it into a community‑centered ministry hub. This is a practical and insightful conversation for leaders who want to think more clearly, plan more collaboratively, and guide their churches with purpose.
