In Episode 145, Lauren interviews Julie Yoder, one of the Senior Pastors at The Vineyard Church of Central Illinois, where she leads alongside her husband, Mike. Together, they also serve as Regional Leaders for Vineyard USA in the Midwest Central Region. Raised in the Vineyard, Julie is a gifted communicator, passionate leader, and developer of others. She leads the preaching team and is deeply committed to helping people encounter Jesus in their everyday lives.
In this episode, Julie shares how she leads and develops her church’s preaching team, offers wisdom for young women who feel called to teach and preach, and talks about how she balances family, ministry, and leadership. She and Lauren also discuss what God is doing at The Vineyard of Central Illinois — where nearly 400 baptisms have taken place since April — and explore practical ways to read the Bible, stay connected to God, and remain a lifelong learner.
Before stepping into full-time ministry, Julie earned a degree in Elementary Education from Olivet Nazarene University and worked as a public school reading teacher. She is a graduate of Vineyard Leadership Institute and brings a heart for equipping the church and cultivating a culture where everyone gets to play and Jesus stays at the center. Julie and Mike have four children — Ty, Tate, Maggie, and Molly — and love serving in ministry together. In her free time, Julie enjoys long walks, sweets, beach trips, and getting lost in a good book.
Tune in to be encouraged, equipped, and reminded of the beauty of saying “yes” to Jesus in every season.
