    Slingshot addresses real issues
    Slingshot knows how to skip over fluff and address what leaders need to talk about.
  • Cageytoo
    Always Dead On
    There has yet to be an episode I have listened to that missed the mark on the topic. The Slingshot Group consistently offers great content—some of which I have been able to put into to practice in more than one ministry setting. It’s good stuff. Every time I listen, I always end up sharing!
  • mtwright
    The right amount of relationship and challenge
    Every episode of this podcast is a direct reflection of the people who help make Slingshot Group happen: high relational connect with high Kingdom-sized challenge. You definitely want to subscribe.
  • SanojOM
    Compelling & Challenging
    Slingshot brings great diversity to the podcast world with it’s topics, content, hosts, and guests. The material and points of application speak to and reach a multigenerational audience that currently fill ministry/non-profit positions all over. I’ve sent multiple episodes to several people in all sorts of vocations and positions with great feedback each time. Great work from great people.

    This podcast is for anyone who wants to grow their leadership capacity. They do a great job covering such good topics. Pastor? Non-profit leader? This is for you!

    Great Content!
    I’ve always been a fan of Slingshot and the ways they’ve approached staffing in the local church. Their focus on health and fit have no doubt helped many churches make the right hires that set them up for long term success. I’m super stoked / encouraged that they’re branching out into the podcasting world, taking the knowledge they’ve learned and using it to continue helping leaders and organizations thrive by strategically thinking about how to lead and grow. Great show.
  • Austinjwalker
    Great content
    Love that the Slingshot group is sharing some incredibly helpful content like this. We’ve loved partnering with them on searches and I know we’ll get tons of benefit out of this as episodes keep coming out. Thanks y’all!
  • #ACfam
    10/10. Leadership and ministry gold.
    These guys are talking about important topics with great and widespread experience, wisdom, and perspectives. You will be able to easily take something away to better your leadership from each episode.
  • Todd McK
    Slingshot hits another home run!
    Truly enjoying this new podcast of Slingshots. This ministry understands the good and the bad out there in ministry. Through this podcast they are bringing comfort to those of us who have or are experiencing the bad. They are also highlighting the good practices in ministry. Bottom line, for me this is a must listen to podcast. Enjoy!

    The conversations that need to be had
    Churches and non-profits are great, and they are doing a lot of great things in this world, but they're still run by humans, and that makes it inevitably tough. The conversations this podcast is trying to foster are important, necessary, and often skipped-over or omittied. There's lots of podcasts out there in this category that want you to think if you just pray, sing, or meet more that it'll all get better, but it takes difficult/real conversations to stay healthy as a team and as an individual. I look forward to the conversations and interviews as they continue to grow and evolve, and I think this will bring a lot of previously hidden difficulties to the light and I can't wait to hear the stories of the tumult it prevents and heals. Thanks, Slingshot Team. So grateful for the insight and bravery.
  • Baby Girl Daughter
    Ministry Ninjas!
    Absolutely love this podcast. I can’t just listen to it once. I need to listen to the episodes a couple of time while I take notes. Such good stuff.
  • Sammy_317
    Exceptional content
    The Slingshot Group, not only are they an excellent firm, but extraordinary individuals, friends. They are real people who truly care about you and your organization. This comes out in their podcast which is loaded with incredible content. I loved, the interview as well as the practical application.
  • JZ (Jeremy Zach)
    The Ministry Mavericks
    Slingshot has a front seat into church dynamics which allows them to extract patterns and answer tough, unconventional questions before others can begin to articulate seasoned answers. I am excited to keep listening as they address topics that may make churches mad as they address epidemic, systemic issues that get church leaders more emotionally intelligent.

  • meCoreyG
    Love SG
    Love Slingshot Group and the content they produce. I have worked with in the past for searches and consider them one of the best staffing and recruiting firms for church and other nonprofit organizations. If you are a leader (church or business), I highly recommend that you subscribe and listen to the podcast.
  • justinbreckan
    Yes
    I recently listened to ep 1 and am so glad I did. Such a difficult topic to even consider discussing and yet so worth the conversation. Handled with such grace and truth. Grateful for you guys.
  • Mattlove91
