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.

Kirk Romberg

Hey, I’m Kirk.

I have been in pastoral leadership since 1992. Over my years of investing in the local church, my most rewarding experiences have been walking alongside leaders by partnering with what God is doing to develop them as they navigate their journey, sharpen their sense of unique contribution, and move toward convergence. I am passionate about leaders coming into alignment, going the distance, and finishing well.

I grew up in Southern California, raised my family in the Pacific Northwest, and now live in Northern Colorado with my wife, Cindy. Together we enjoy our adult kids and grandkids. In addition to coaching I’m a Strategic Interim Pastor with IPM (Interim Pastor Ministries), own a small business, and advocate for the world’s most vulnerable.
