LCMS at a Breaking Point? What We Learned at the PSD Convention

In this episode of Lead Time, Tim Ahlman returns from sabbatical with a candid conversation about the changing landscape of ministry in the LCMS. From re-organizing senior staff and shifting governance models, to the biblical case for pastoral sabbaticals, to the urgent realities of pastoral formation, this episode doesn’t shy away from the hard questions. Tim shares personal reflections from his sabbatical and his upcoming book release, while Jack dives into the tough realities facing small congregations, bivocational ministry, and the need for fresh approaches to leadership. Together they recap the Pacific Southwest District convention, explore resolutions around SMP pastors and Lutheran identity, and call the church to unity rooted in Scripture and Confession. 👉 Topics include: Why Christ Greenfield restructured its leadership model. The benefits of sabbaticals for pastors (and congregations). Governance models that help or hinder ministry. Urgent challenges in pastoral formation and SMP pathways. What really defines Lutheran identity. How property development and mission innovation can shape the future. This is a hopeful yet challenging look at where we are and where we’re headed as the LCMS seeks to unite for the sake of the gospel. 🔔 Please Like, comment, and subscribe to Lead Time for real talk about leading in the LCMS today.
