In this episode Richard talks with friend and pastor Bruce Aubrey. He has served on church staffs for more than 45 years. After serving as a youth director for three years and an associate pastor for four years, Bruce served as lead pastor of three churches over the past 39 years most recently at Northside Church in Liverpool for 30 years. He has pastored churches from 80 in attendance to 1200. Northside has embraced a strategy and plan that the church can be stronger and gospel impact exponential. On January 15, he began a new role at Northside no longer as lead pastor but as pastor to pastors. The goal is that pastors don’t quit, churches don’t die, communities don’t lose a lighthouse and that lost people have more not less opportunities to hear the gospel and believe. The ministry includes conferences, mentoring and coaching, and building helpful connections for pastors and churches. Check out the Keep the Fire Burning Podcast.

In this episode Richard talks about leadership and faith with friend and returning guest Scott MacLellan. They also discuss what it was like to lead an organization in the healthcare industry during COVID. Scott has been a CEO for the last 25 years, leading multi-billion-dollar businesses and tens of thousands of employees. His companies have been voted one of the best places to work in healthcare multiple times. He’s started two companies from scratch, one of which is a thirty-billion-dollar international company today. Harvard Business School profiled one of his start-ups in a case study. He’s written nine books, is the executive producer of an upcoming streaming series in development and has even worked as a celebrity bodyguard. He now knows all of this business-success has been “vanity” and “chasing after the wind”. In fact, his greatest story is tied to being a follower of Jesus Christ, a husband of 38 years, a father of two daughters, and grandfather to three boys. Scott's newest book, The Ancient Ladder, is out now wherever books are sold. You can find out more about what Scott is up to and connect with him at www.awarenessofgod.org.
