Table & Well Podcast

HOSTS: Tennison & Ginelle Barry

Join Tennison and Ginelle as they begin their conversation with their friend Britton Smith.  Britton, his wife Michelle, and 3 boys have been roving across the country for the past 5 months connecting with other pastors that are on the same journey he found himself and is still on.  Moving from Pastor to Pioneer.  Britton is the director of Pastors to Pioneer, and their mission is to help pastors move from managing institutions to pioneering movements of disciples and simple churches in their cities.

In this podcast, listen in as they discuss the journey of the messy middle and the I don’t know.  This is the new paradigm of disciple-making.  Letting people see you in “all your glory,” the true you and not the polished version we are so accustomed to presenting to the word.  Britton talks a little more about his travels and the gift it is to connect to pioneers who are on this journey.  He also lets us in on some of the common themes he has been seeing and hearing. 

Britton has been pioneering a simple church and discipleship movement in West Michigan since 2013. Most of that time overlapped with being a senior pastor in a growing traditional church. He now only operates in and shepherds the church that meets in homes. Britton has a passion for helping the church live into all that she is called to be according to the Word. He loves to help pastors in traditional churches see their call from the Word in fresh ways. Britton is married to Michelle, who has a heart for walking with pastors’ spouses. They have three boys who they love watching grow into active participants in the family of God.
