  • 51. Heart & Resolve: Navigating Tough Times in Leadership

    17/01/2024 Duración: 18min

    Big thought: Some of the most difficult moments in ministry and leadership is when you feel like you’ve hit a wall and feel like you’re not seeing the results or fruits of the hard work that you’ve been putting in. It may come in different forms. It may be that you have been working at it for a long time and now feel like you’re just beating your head against the wall. Or you may have started to see some of the growth that you were praying and working for, but then, as if from one night to the next, it seems like everything just stops and feels like all of the growth just disappeared. Whatever the details, going through those tough times can make a lot of great leaders want to quit. But if you manage to endure the drought, you will see a payoff. In today’s episode, we’re going to talk about how to rediscover the reasons that you started ministry and leadership in the first place. We’re going to unpack what it means to bounce back. And we’re going to learn how to build support through community and collaborat

  • 50. 3 Major Tips For Planning The New Year

    10/01/2024 Duración: 12min

    Big thought: Many people allow their years to somewhat fold over on each other as they are in a constant state of playing catch up. Without having a clear process of building their plans and goals, they feel overwhelmed at the thought of planning for the year because they struggle with simply planning their week. But if you want something to change in your organization, it requires you to make a plan with certain goals. In order to make this more approachable, you have to simplify the process of planning and goal setting for your year. In today’s episode, we’re going to talk about how to map out your calendar year in order to be more effective and intentional. We’re going to talk about the process of planning monthly series and initiatives, as well as how to have quarterly milestones. We’re also going to talk about how to build loyalty and investment from the people involved in your organization. 1. Chewable Goals. The Year. You should first start by looking at what is a general tone or goal that you want t

  • 49. 5 Lessons I Learned In 2023

    20/12/2023 Duración: 11min

    Big thought: Every year people typically like the idea of having a type of reset in their lives through a New Year’s resolution. One thing that I like to do is have an end of the year reflection to look back and critically think about what lessons I have learned. Each year, I feel like I am able to grow as an individual and leader as I consider these different kinds of life experiences, and I am able to use them to shape myself into the kind of person that I want to become. In today’s episode, I’m going to talk about five major lessons I learned from this past year. We’re going to learn why it’s important to not wait too long to act and why you need to make the time to connect with people. We’re going to talk about being consistent in small beginnings and how that kind of discipline can bleed over. And we’re going to talk about how meaningful it is to enjoy what you’re doing. 1. Don’t wait too long to act. There were some things that I knew that I needed to do but procrastinated too long to actually act on

  • 48. Becoming A Confident Leader: Apology Behavior & Taking Responsibility

    13/12/2023 Duración: 14min

    Big thought: One of the hardest parts about becoming a leader is the weight of responsibility that comes with it. It can feel overwhelming to feel like different initiatives or even sometimes the entire organization is relying on you. It can feel either frustrating or discouraging when you run into problems or failed goals with all of that pressure coming down on you and your ego/identity. Learning how to handle those challenges and situations is something that takes humility and experiences of lessons learned. In today’s episode, we’re going to talk about the importance of taking responsibility as a leader and how to navigate it in an authentic way without feeling like you have to apologize for everything. We’re going to break down the essence of taking responsibility and then talk about when you should and shouldn’t apologize. And we’re going to finish by talking about the necessity of being genuine in the midst of mistakes or goals unmet. This is important to talk about because it can feel incredibly con

  • 47. Find Your Niche: Learning How To Build Your Specialty

    06/12/2023 Duración: 15min

    Big thought: One of the biggest mistakes that ministers and leaders make is making their desired audience too broad. If you try to reach everyone, you’ll often reach no one. But if you try to reach someone, you’ll feel like you’re reaching everyone. This all boils down into finding out what your niche of expertise is in. In today’s episode, we’re going to talk about how to find your niche when it comes to ministry. We’re going to talk about practical ways to discover what your niche may be. We’re going to talk about how to grow in your niche once it’s found. And We’re going to talk about how to brand your niche to your ministry. When you find out who your type of message is best suited for, you will be able to focus on that specific type of audience and reach them in a way that is genuine. Rather than spreading your message in hard to grow places, you will be planting your seeds in soil primed to bear fruit. 1. Your Specialty. The first thing that you have to do is narrow down your target audience. I kno

  • 46. The Art Attention: Learning To Choose What To Give Your Focus

    29/11/2023 Duración: 17min

    Big thought: The longer that you are a leader, the greater demand of your attention grows. It can feel overwhelming as you begin to have too much on your plate, and with feeling exasperated comes feeling confused on what you should be doing first. On top of that, the minute that you finish one thing, it seems like three more things arise asking for your focus again. In today’s episode, we’re going to talk about how to discern what you should and shouldn’t give your attention to. We’re going to discuss how to build a process of deciding a yes or no for your time and energy. We’re going to unpack the difference between things that are important and urgent. And we’re going to talk about building boundaries with people when it comes to giving your time. Learning how to discern what you should say yes or no to is pivotal to keeping your composure and sanity as a leader. It takes some hard work and intention to begin the journey organizing your attention span, but before long, if you don’t give up, it will becom

  • 45. 3 Principles For Navigating The Early Journey To Leadership

    15/11/2023 Duración: 16min

    Big thought: Most leaders start out with a simple aspiration to make a difference by stepping up in some way shape or form. As simple as it starts, there are so many complex situations and ideas that we run into along the way. At the same time, there are different levels of leadership and different things that you should practice depending on how far into it you are. What you do at the beginning of your leadership journey is very different from what you do as a seasoned leader. In today’s episode, we’re going to talk about three key pillars you should build in your leadership early on. We’re going to talk about what it is to work hard while being teachable in the process. And we’re going to unpack what it is to connect as a leader and how you can practically do that. Take away: 1. What should you be saying yes to or volunteering for right now? Act on it. 2. Examine your teachability and pick a source talked about today to use to grow your knowledge. 3. Consider when the next opportunity for you to be able t

  • 44. Beyond the Screen: Uncovering the Value of In-Person Interaction

    08/11/2023 Duración: 19min

    Big thought: It’s easier now than ever to project a message for others to hear because of online platforms. You don’t need anyone’s permission to start a live video or launch a podcast. Any person who is convincing enough can create an online following that goes to them for guidance, lessons or advice. The only problem is that if your only experience is online experience, you will run out of relatability and sound perception quickly. Without actual in person ministry experiences, you will be limited in tested and tried feedback. You run the high risk of pretty much making things up as you go. And if your messages and posts become unhinged like that, you’ll end up being a story of the blind leading the blind. In today’s episode, we’re going to talk about how important it is to have in person ministry. We’re going to talk about the value of having both an online and face to face presence. We’re going to also unpack the necessity of building person to person experiences and how they build your character, percep

  • 43. How To Better Share Your Testimony

    01/11/2023 Duración: 10min

    Big thought: A person’s own personal transformational experience with Jesus Christ can be one of the most powerful tools one can use in bringing others to Christ. But the problem is that many people struggle to go through their story in an effective and easy to follow way. Learning how to sharpen your testimony can dramatically alter how you’re able to use it. In today’s episode, we’re going to talk about how to perfect sharing your testimony. We’re going to learn how to break down the order in which you should share your story and how to add a call to action to it. We’re also going to unpack how to build both a short and long version of your testimony. And we’re going to talk about how to adapt your story to your audience. 1. Organize It. Just like any other message that you’d share, you need to organize it. What’s special about your testimony is that you don’t have to re-learn anything about it because you're sharing from memory and heart rather than mind and knowledge. Building your story through po

  • 42. Make Your Message More Approachable

    24/10/2023 Duración: 17min

    42. Make Your Message More Approachable Big thought: So many times, we have a great life giving message that can truly help impact a person’s life and soul, we’re left deflated and confused when people reject that message on the spot. While saying things like, “they just can’t handle the truth” lets us off the hook, being better at how we say certain things can make our messages more effective and receptive to people. In today’s episode, we’re going to talk about how important it is to meet people where they’re at with your language in order to help them to be more open to hear what you have to say. We’re going to unpack why and how it’s so meaningful and effective to consider your message’s approachability. We’re going to talk about some examples of certain things to avoid. And we’re going to look at some tips and ways for you to build your own unique language that’s approachable without compromising on the principles of your message. 1. Don’t Be Obnoxious It is hard to listen receptively to someone who

  • 40. The Power of Using Stories To Inspire Participation

    04/10/2023 Duración: 17min

    Big thought: It’s common to read even passages of scripture that are powerful yet feel like your audience isn’t connecting to it. Oftentimes it’s not as much as what we are talking about as it is how we are talking about it. As leaders and communicators, we have to learn how to better develop our storytelling abilities so that we can help people to visualize what the passage is saying. In today’s episode, we’re going to learn how to utilize moments and stories in a way that is memorable and meaningful. We’re going to learn how to connect people's emotions to the story by building value through context. And we’re going to unpack ways to make these different stories relatable to calls to action. The reason that this topic is so important is because we are able to make substantially more impact through our stories across the board. Whether it’s recruiting volunteers, getting people to sign-up or inspiring people to donate, meaningful and connected stories have been proven to bring about greater participa
