102. Elder Highlight: Meet the Tidwells!

April 17, 2024 • Hannah McNeill, Mark Tidwell, Carrie Tidwell

Give

It was a personal invitation that helped bring them to Central, and you’ll quickly pick up on Mark’s excitement for God’s people and his hopes for Central. From a passion for the local church to ice cream every night,

there’s a lot to love about Mark and Carrie. If you haven’t met them yet, allow us to introduce you! Throughout our conversation, we’re reminded that we lead out of our stories—out of our flaws and weaknesses—and that there is a real tension between planning and leading versus surrendering to God’s plan and his guidance.

Speakers: Hannah McNeill, Mark Tidwell, Carrie Tidwell, Mic Biesboer

105. Elder Highlight: Meet the Nashes!

May 14, 2024 • Michael Nash, Anita Nash, Hannah McNeill

They’ve been here almost 10 years, and as soon as they walked in the door that first Wednesday night, they had some instant connections to mission work and college friends. The Nash family quickly came to love the community involvement here, and they found in Central a place to serve and for their girls to grow in their faith. Michael is known for his compassion, and he brings to this leadership a gift for listening to and connecting with people. He is excited about the present and what God is already doing through Central. And as we look to the future of this community, we look not to create new things but to align ourselves better with what God is already doing. May we have the eyes to see where God is already working and join him in that work. Speakers: Hannah McNeill; Michael, Anita, Kelsey, and Jenna Nash

104. Elder Highlight: Meet the Richardsons!

May 9, 2024 • Hannah McNeill, Doug Richardson, Mandi Richardson

If you have a soft spot in your heart for skating, this is the episode for you! We learn some great things about Doug (“Alexa, play Pitbull.”) while also getting a look into what Central means to the Richardsons. By growing up here and watching faithful leadership of the past, this church is deeply embedded in this family and has formed them in the way of humble servanthood. As we look toward the future, Doug is excited for both the history and people here but also the future opportunities with people that aren’t just like him and how we as a church can continue in this direction of making everyone feel welcome. Speakers: Hannah McNeill; Mic Biesboer; Doug, Mandi, Sloan, & Sy Richardson

103. What’s the next thing for our 2024 Seniors?

April 30, 2024 • Hannah Green, Hannah Shepherd, Gracie Robertson

It’s both really exciting and a little scary for our senior class as the end of the school year draws to a close. Today’s episode features 3 Hannahs, 3 lefties, and 3 seniors entirely born and raised here at Central. The joy coming from these seniors is evident, and they each have a unique heart for service. From dreaming of being a teacher, a vet, and one other profession (listen to find out), the experiences that they’ve had with their faith community are shaping their way forward and what they intend to pursue after high school. It is obvious how God has been at work in each of these young women! Listen to the conversation at http://www.amarillocentral.org/media.
