Do some churches intentionally plant new churches to avoid becoming a megachurch?

Some pastors want revival, not real estate.

In this clip from Episode 155 – Church Planting: DIY or Die Trying, Nate and Pastor Joseph unpack the idea that not every church wants to become the next big box of faith. Some churches plant others on purpose—not just to multiply, but to avoid the burnout, bloat, and brand-building that comes with going mega.

This is the stuff no one’s talking about from the pulpit—real talk about growth, control, and spiritual health. Expect sarcasm, insight, and a few shots fired.

👥 Hosted by Nate and Pastor Joseph of When I Heard This, the podcast for people who love Jesus but have questions about His fan club.
