Conversation with Eric Bryant
Monday, 5 January, 2026
A camp quiet time, a seven‑minute first sermon, and a calling that survived Seattle headwinds, LA creativity, and an Austin reset—Eric Bryant joins us to trace a lived map of ministry that is honest, hopeful, and deeply practical. We open with his world in South Austin, where skepticism runs high and belonging often precedes belief. Eric unpacks how his team builds space for spiritual explorers, why no‑phone camps still change lives, and what it takes to disciple people in a culture allergic to churchy answers.The journey moves through Seattle’s tough soil, where a planter’s heart met legacy expectations and taught hard lessons about change, patience, and the power of a single grandparent showing up for her grandson. Then to Mosaic in Los Angeles, where art met mission, a nightclub became a sanctuary, and young believers were deployed around the world. Eric shares the thrill of multiplication alongside the cost of an unsustainable pace—and the counseling, boundaries, and honest conversations that realigned his marriage and ministry.Send us a textWe want to help you find your next steps in ministry.Connect here with EXCEL.
