Hi Reader,
Today’s episode is unlike any I’ve done before.
I sat down with Carl Lentz for a long, honest conversation about leadership, failure, platform, pressure, and what happens when it all unravels. We didn’t rush it. We didn’t avoid the hard parts. We went there.
Leadership comes with influence. It also comes with responsibility. And when integrity fractures, the consequences are real, for you, for your church, for your soul.
But this episode isn’t about scandal. It’s about self-leadership. It’s about humility. It’s about what platform can do to a heart that isn’t anchored deeply enough. And it’s about the long road back when things fall apart.
If you lead at any level, this conversation will challenge you. Not because you see yourself in Carl’s story, but because every leader faces temptation.
My hope? That this episode helps you build a healthier, deeper, more sustainable leadership foundation than ever before.
🎧 Listen now and take the next step toward healthier leadership. Watch it on YouTube or tune in wherever you listen to podcasts.
