Leadership #18: Timing in leadership - how to deal with closed doors

More often than we’d like to, we will be faced with closed doors in life and leadership.But closed doors do not mean that it’s the end of the road for you. They do not mean that God has stopped caring for you. Quite the opposite. Closed doors often have to do with God’s timing in your life, his work in you, and his purposes for you.

Leadership #17: Loneliness in leadership

Leadership is lonely. It might not look like it from the outside because a leader is often surrounded by others, but every leader knows that in order to lead, well, you typically lead from the front – alone. In today’s podcast we’ll discuss three principles that will help us navigate loneliness successfully.

Leadership #16: Spiritual disciplines every leader needs

When Jesus said, “Follow me,” he meant that we follow his way of life that involved several practices that enabled him to experience intimacy with his heavenly Father and live out his life and ministry from that place of communion. In today’s podcast I will focus on three spiritual disciplines that every leader needs.

Leadership #15: How to fight anxiety

Leadership #14: Everyday challenges every leader faces

We’re continuing the Leadership Edition of The Hope Podcast – a series of episodes where we look at Jesus as the model of our leadership and redefine what it means to be a leader in God’s economy. Today we’ll address how to navigate the challenges and difficult decisions a leader faces on a regular basis.

Fearless #6: Fearless when love is scary as heck

If we’re ever going to change the world around us it will have to be Jesus’ way – the way of love. A love that’s biblical, sacrificial, unconditional, unstoppable, holy, and truthful. And this kind of love can be scary. As we look at David’s story with Mephibosheth, in today’s podcast we’ll dismantle some misconception about love and learn what it means to be fearless when it seems that our fear in love might overtake us.

Fearless #5: Fearless when I’m too depressed to go on

Have you ever felt too weary and depressed to go on? Elijah did… In 1 Kings 19 we find him overwhelmed by life’s circumstances and ready to give up. But when he might have written the end of his story, God was just getting started.
As we look at how the Lord dealt with Elijah when he was stumbling through the dark, we will glean hope and gain confidence in a God committed to deliver and restore us no matter how deeply sunken we might feel. Listen in!

Fearless #4: Fearless when I’ve blown it and I know it

While we might strongly dislike failure, at some point in life we all fall short no matter how strong we think we are. The good news is that with God failure is not the end of our story, but the very thing he will use to show us his strength, his love, and to pave the way to our maximum usefulness. Today's podcast is an invitation for you to embrace your failure and turn to the Lord who is waiting for you “breakfast ready.”
