Some highlights from today’s episode include:
- “Ministry leadership is some of the most complex and challenging leadership environments we will find ourselves in.”
- “Leadership is all about people.”
- “We see leadership coaching relationships all throughout Scripture.”
- “Every great leader needs a coach.”
- “If you’re going to work with people, you’re going to have to love them and lead them.”
