There is something uniquely helpful about sitting down with someone who has been in leadership a little longer than you have. Hearing them share honestly about what worked, what didn't, and how God sustained them through it all gives a lot of perspective for our own day-to-day work.

That’s really the heart behind our new podcast from Oak Hill College: Jesus Work in Jesus Ways.

Each Tuesday, Mark Stirling (Director of our MA in Contemporary Christian Leadership) sits down with different pastors, practitioners, and leaders. Together, they talk through what it actually looks like to step off the performance treadmill and lead out of character, service, and love instead.

I've just listened to the first episode and I don't hesitate to describe it as essential listening for any Christian leader.

If you find these conversations encouraging, subscribing and leaving a quick rating or review on Spotify or Apple Podcasts makes a huge difference in helping other leaders find the show.
