Ben Gladd — Encouraging Texts | Lunch with Awkward People | Transactional vs. Transformational Relationships

Episode 2

Thursday, September 17, 2026 • Duration 16:11

What does discipleship look like when most of your work happens alone at a desk? On this episode of The Shepherding Time podcast, Rush Witt and Joe Keller talk with Dr. Ben Gladd, executive director of the Carson Center for Theological Renewal, about how he stays relationally connected while working remotely on some of evangelicalism's biggest publishing projects.

Ben shares two simple, practical habits: sending quick encouraging texts to friends old and new, and intentionally going to lunch with local pastors and professors — including people he doesn't naturally click with, because the awkward relationships are often the ones that need it most. He and Rush unpack the difference between transactional relationships (task in, task out) and transformational ones (caring about who someone is, not just what they do), and Ben explains a small communication habit — a few extra seconds of warmth in every email or Slack message — that has changed how people relate to him over his whole career. He closes with a window into how he manages dozens of writing and editing projects at once, using a filter borrowed from D.A. Carson: only take on work the church needs, or work the church doesn't yet know it needs.

About Ben Gladd:
Dr. Ben Gladd is the executive director of the Carson Center for Theological Renewal and a widely published New Testament scholar and editor, known for his work connecting Scripture across the biblical storyline. He is currently finishing a major commentary on Mark and co-leading an Old Testament companion to his Connecting Scripture project with Michael Morales.

Reagan Rose — Morning Routines | Sabbath Rest | The Four Kinds of Time

Episode 1

Saturday, September 12, 2026 • Duration 12:42

How should a pastor think about time when just being "more efficient" isn't enough? On this episode of The Shepherding Time podcast, hosts Rush Witt and Joe Keller sit down with Reagan Rose — the Bible teacher behind Redeeming Productivity — to talk pastoral time management from a biblical, stewardship-first perspective.

Reagan shares how a seminary classroom full of overwhelmed future pastors first pushed him to write about time management, then walks through two of the highest-leverage habits in his own life: a fifteen-year morning routine built around a simple acronym (POWER: Prayer, Organize, Word, Exercise, Reading) and a growing conviction about Sabbath rest as a spiritual discipline that makes the rest of the week more productive, not less. The conversation turns to a framework Reagan's been developing for pastors who feel the pull to always do more: four kinds of time — Goal time, Grow time, Grit time, and Gift time — and why most time management advice only ever addresses one of them.

If you lead a church, plant a church, or shepherd people day to day, this episode will give you real categories for stewarding your whole life, not just your calendar.

About Reagan Rose:
Reagan Rose is the founder of Redeeming Productivity, where he teaches personal productivity from a Christian worldview through articles, videos, and a growing YouTube channel. Find his work at redeemingproductivity.com or search "Redeeming Productivity" on YouTube.
