Episodes
The One Word Every Pastor Needs
What's the one thing every pastor needs above gifting, above charisma, above a good sermon? In this message from Titus 1, Pastor Rogers walks through Paul's charge to young Titus, a discouraged pastor serving in a hard place, and distills God's requirements for a pastor down to one word: integrity. Integrity in doctrine, integrity in morals, integrity in home life, integrity in ministry. Pastor Ro
Preaching God's Word: Why it Still Matters
Why does it matter that we call the Bible the Word of God, and not just "biblical materials" or "record of God's revelation"? In this message from 1 Thessalonians 1, Pastor Rogers makes the case for pastors and teachers alike: because Scripture is called the Word of God, it must be absolutely perfect, since a God of truth cannot inspire error. Pastor Rogers goes further, showing that the Bible sha
The Secret to a Church That Stays Together
What does a championship basketball team have in common with a healthy church? In this message from Philippians 2 and 4, Pastor Rogers borrows a principle from legendary UCLA coach John Wooden, who built championship teams around three things: getting players in condition, teaching them to play together, and drilling the fundamentals. Pastor Rogers shows how those same three things, sanctification
The Kind of Man God Uses, Part 2
Picking up where Part 1 left off, Pastor Rogers continues his study of Gideon's life with a warning every pastor needs to hear: vision and valor aren't enough without vigilance. Using Gideon's test at the water, separating the men who stayed alert from those who let their guard down, Pastor Rogers challenges pastors to never let their calling make them careless. Pastor Rogers closes with the final
The Kind of Man God Uses, Part 1
God didn't call Gideon because he was strong; He called him because Gideon was willing. In this message from Judges 6, Pastor Rogers walks through the life of a man who saw himself as the least likely candidate for ministry, and shows how God transformed him anyway. Pastor Rogers identifies five marks of a man God uses, beginning with vision, an encounter with the living God that changes how you s
The Vision Every Church Needs
What made the New Testament church different? Pastor Rogers says it was rigid, respected, revolutionary, and responsive, qualities that feel almost countercultural today. In this message from Proverbs 29:18, Pastor Rogers challenges pastors to stop measuring their churches against neighboring congregations and start measuring against the New Testament pattern instead. Pastor Rogers lays out a visi
How to Lead Through Growing Pains
Every growing church has problems, and that's not a warning sign, but a sign of life. In this message from Acts 5 and 6, Pastor Rogers unpacks the New Testament model for how a church operates: pastor-led, deacon-served, committee-operated, and congregationally affirmed. When the Early Church multiplied, a legitimate problem surfaced: the neglect of the Grecian widows. It could have split the chur

How to Cope with Unjust Criticism
Every faithful pastor will face criticism, but not all criticism is just. In this honest and empowering message from 1 Corinthians 4, Adrian Rogers shows how Paul navigated the pain of unfair judgment from others—and how you can too. Whether it's attacks on your motives, your leadership, or your message, this episode reminds you that your identity isn't found in public opinion—it's found in Christ
How to Find Contentment in the Ministry
In a world of metrics, platforms, and public applause, it's easy for pastors to feel invisible, inadequate, or envious. In this freeing message from John 3, Adrian Rogers looks at the life of John the Baptist to show us where true contentment in ministry is found—not in the crowd's approval, but in the Savior's glory. With pastoral warmth and biblical insight, Dr. Rogers reminds us that our callin

From emotional fatigue to strained family life
How to Be Found Faithful in Ministry
What will it be like to stand before God and answer for your ministry? In this powerful message rooted in Hebrews 13 and 2 Corinthians 5, Adrian Rogers reminds pastors that every sermon, decision, and motive will one day pass before the eyes of the Lord. While salvation is by grace, rewards are by works, and not every work will stand the test of fire. Dr. Rogers unpacks what it means for pastors t
The Church Needs Shepherds, Not CEOs
The church doesn't need CEOs. It needs shepherds. In this heartfelt and challenging message from 1 Peter 5, Adrian Rogers shares what real pastoral leadership looks like, based not on worldly models but on the servant leadership of Jesus. Originally delivered to the Southern Baptist Convention Pastors' Conference, this message draws a vivid picture of the pastor as elder, shepherd, and bishop, cal
What God Looks for in a Pastor
How do you measure the success of a pastor? Is it by church size, sermon skill, popularity, or productivity? In this convicting message from 1 Corinthians 4, Adrian Rogers challenges worldly standards of ministry and points us back to God's standard: faithfulness. Using the powerful image of a "lower rower"—a slave at the bottom of an ancient ship—Dr. Rogers unpacks what it means to be a servant o
Ministry is More Than a Job
What sets apart a true minister of the Gospel? It's not education, gifting, or ambition. It's a call from God.
