About this episode

Pastor Ron discusses the need for churches to adapt their methods while maintaining their core mission.

What does it mean to update the “wineskin” without losing the “wine”? Pastor Ron explains why churches must adapt methods to reach new generations while never compromising the core mission of worship, discipleship, and the Word of God. In this episode of Ron + Hope: Unfiltered, he shares personal insights from decades of ministry and calls believers back to a biblical model of faith that transforms lives daily — not just on Sundays.
