Preaching and Plagiarism with Mike Goldsworthy

Preaching and Plagiarism with Mike Goldsworthy

Author: Steve Carter October 16, 2024 Duration: 59:29
In this episode of Craft & Character, Steve Carter interviews pastor Mike Goldsworthy around the topic of plagiarism and the crafting of sermons. Mike shares ways we can easily give credit to an idea or author without slowing down the flow of the teaching. He also unpacks what’s happening in a pastors life that makes them believe this is ok. The character required to give proper credit actually communicates the time, effort, and learning into a message. BIO For over 20 years, Mike has helped people approach their life with more wholeness, intentionality, sustainability, and fulfillment. Helping people both engage more fully in the life that’s right in front of them while also discovering the unlived life that’s within them, he creates a safe space to be challenged towards action. Having served as a non-profit leader, adjunct professor, and executive consultant and coach, Mike puts his Masters Degree in Transformational Leadership to work as he helps leaders and organizations recognize the impact that a transformed leader can have not only on themselves, but also on their team and in their organization. Utilizing his certifications in Working Genius, Transformational Coaching, and Primal Question Coaching, he has worked with leaders and teams, both large and small, in corporate as well as nonprofit spaces.

Steve Carter hosts Craft & Character, a space where the art of preaching meets the inward journey of the preacher. This isn't about quick tips or isolated techniques; it's a deep, thoughtful exploration of how who you are fundamentally shapes what you say from the pulpit. Each episode rests on a central, challenging question: are you merely transferring religious information, or are you speaking from a place that has been genuinely and personally transformed? The conversations in this podcast argue that authentic, impactful communication of faith cannot happen without the messenger's own life being shaped by the very truths they proclaim. You'll hear Steve engage with a variety of voices on the intricate blend of skill development and spiritual formation. The discussions are grounded in practical wisdom for the craft of sermon preparation and delivery, while always circling back to the essential priority of character, integrity, and a vibrant personal walk. Designed for those in ministry, from seasoned pastors to those just starting out, this podcast offers a rare and refreshing honesty about the pressures and privileges of the role. It’s for anyone who believes that teaching well requires living well first, making Craft & Character a vital resource for personal growth and professional development within the realms of faith and leadership.
