Reconstructing Pastors Podcast

Welcome to the "Reconstructing Pastors Podcast" with your hosts, Ruth Lorensson and Kirk Romberg. Join us on a transformative journey as we dive deep into the heart of faith, calling, and community in the midst of church deconstruction.

In this thought-provoking podcast, we invite you to eavesdrop on our discussions with each other (and our guests) as we unravel the intricacies of navigating life beyond the institutional church model. We confront the church's complexities, controversies, and challenges in order to understand what we need to leave behind as we discover what's next.

With humor, empathy, and a dash of irreverence, we engage with profound questions surrounding faith and church culture. And we do so with an unwavering commitment to creating a safe, real and welcoming space.

Tune in to the "Reconstructing Pastors Podcast" and be part of a movement that envisions a better way for the church and all those who seek meaning in a rapidly changing world.

Subscribe now to join the conversation and embrace the reconstruction journey.

Ruth Lorensson

Hi, I’m Ruth.

I’m an Executive Coach and Co-Founder for Bridge and Rhino! I’ve been in pastoral ministry and leadership since 1999.

I’m passionate about helping people navigate the sometimes complicated terrain of their calling. In my years working alongside churches and organizations in the UK and the US, one of my greatest joys has been coaching people to become the full versions of themselves, locking in on the dreams God has for them even as they sometimes encounter uncertainty and transition.

I grew up in the UK but I now live with my husband and children in beautiful Fort Collins, Colorado.

When I’m not coaching, I speak at churches and conferences, write articles, host podcasts and advocate for women speakers.
