What's Good?
"What's Good" is a conversation about best practices and stories of encouragement for church leaders and ministers. We talk to leaders in a variety of fields to get a sense of what they see as "good" through the lens of their faith. Listeners will hear ideas and ways to connect the church and community.

What's Good?
Money and Ministry with Mark Elsdon of Rooted Good
Mark is the author of We Aren’t Broke: Uncovering Hidden Resources for Mission and Ministry. He is also an entrepreneur, pastor, consultant, and speaker. He is co-founder of RootedGood, which seeks to create more good in the world through social innovation; executive director at Pres House on the University of Wisconsin's Madison campus; and owner of Elsdon Strategic Consulting.
Our conversation begins with views of winter weather snowfalls in Wisconsin versus ice storms in NC, but quickly weaves through the many roles Mark plays and how each informs the other. Most importantly weaving through it all is the role that resources, and our understanding of them, can be powerful tools for ministry, even those which we have never dreamed of!
