It was a wild week in ministry life! Andrew recapped Safety Harbor’s Back to School Pool Party—because nothing says “fall kickoff” like sunscreen and cannonballs. Over at Lakeview, Frank somehow worked “man nipples” into his sermon (yep, you read that right) and also got the unique experience of playing campus pastor for the day.

We laughed, we cringed, and we reminded ourselves that God’s grace really does cover all things… even questionable sermon illustrations.

Join us for another round of post-Sunday reflections, ministry mishaps, and the encouragement we all need on a Monday morning.

This week on the Morning After Ministry Show, Lakeview is knee-deep in their Misquoted Passages series, unpacking verses we’ve all heard taken out of context. Over at Safety Harbor, we’re two weeks into our fall series that will carry us all the way to Advent. We’re also in the thick of new members classes, mapping out some big events on the calendar, and feeling the full weight (and excitement) of back-to-school season. Ministry never slows down, but at least we can laugh, learn, and swap stories over coffee together.

We did it. 300 episodes. And what better place to celebrate than the Most Magical Place on Earth?

This week, Andrew, Tim, and Frank left the comfort of their Florida church offices and took the show on location to Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World. (Don’t worry, we found a semi-quiet spot with a decent Wi-Fi signal—thanks, Galaxy’s Edge).

In this special anniversary episode, we:

• Reflect on 300 episodes of Mondays, ministry, and mediocre coffee

• Share our favorite moments and bloopers from the show’s history

• Talk about what we’ve learned after years of church leadership (and friendship)

• Offer some heartfelt encouragement to pastors and ministry leaders feeling tired, unseen, or just plain stuck

• Debate whether Pizza Rizzo is the most underrated quick-service spot in the park

• Get interrupted by a Stormtrooper patrol (true story)

Thank you for being part of this journey. Whether you’ve listened to all 300 episodes or this is your first, we’re so grateful for you.

Grab a churro, throw on some Mickey ears, and celebrate with us!
