Welcome to The Leader’s Cut, hosted by Preston Morrison (Senior Pastor of Pillar Church in Scottsdale, Arizona). Here, we believe you are at your best when you allow God to cut away what’s getting in His way, so He can move through you in powerful, new ways. ”The Leader” refers to Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit, who guides every believer. ”The Cut” is about allowing the Holy Spirit to precisely remove the ”flesh” – those things in our lives that hinder His movement. Just as the Old Testament marked God’s people with physical circumcision, the New Testament calls for a circumcision of the heart. Join us weekly for new episodes, where we pray the Spirit of God speaks directly to you about that week’s topic. From past experiences to practical tips to cheat codes in life, lean into the ‘cuts’ each week for Biblical principles and practical takeaways that you can apply to become the person God created you to be. Watch the video episode each week on Youtube, just search ’The Leader’s Cut.’ Follow Preston on Instagram @prestonmorrison Learn more about Pillar Church at ThePillar.com
You said yes to Jesus. But which one? Because the first yes was the easy one — and God isn't done asking.
In this episode of The Leader's Cut, Preston Morrison and Tim Ross sit down for an honest, unfiltered conversation on what continuous obedience really looks like. We often hear people say, "Thank you for your yes," as if walking with God is defined by a single, one-time decision. But a single "...
God moves excruciatingly slowly… until He moves supernaturally suddenly.
If you've been plowing — head down, hidden, faithful, wondering if anything will ever change — this episode is a right-now word for you. Preston unpacks what he learned transitioning from 12 years of plowing to the season of the double portion, and why so many of us miss what's next.
Because here's w...
What does God’s voice actually sound like? And how do you know if it’s Him or just your own thoughts?
Most believers spend years waiting for a dramatic, audible sign from heaven. But for author/teacher David Holland, learning to hear God came down to something far more intimate: recognizing the distinct tone, timber, and fragrance of the Holy Spirit operating through his own inner voice.
Have you ever stepped off a mountaintop moment with God only to crash into complete spiritual emptiness? You gave Him everything, yet suddenly you can’t feel His presence, hear His voice, or make sense of the season you’re in.
In this episode of The Leader's Cut, Preston sits down with ministry leader, author, and founder of Confident Women Co., Amanda Pittman. Amanda opens up about navigatin...
Are you in a season where you're frustrated because you thought you’d be further by now? You thought things would be different, and the harvest you’ve been praying for still hasn't arrived.
In this powerful episode of The Leader's Cut, Preston Morrison dives deep into a subject he feels he has earned his doctorate in — the essential, supernatural power of the plow. While the rest of the...
"You train your body for the games and you're training for a crown that doesn't last. The fame, money, recognition, opportunities... none of it is actually fulfilling." — Carly Patterson Caldwell
What happens when you achieve everything the world tells you to chase, only to realize the prize doesn’t satisfy?
In this episode of The Leader's Cut, Preston sits down with Olympic All-Around Gymnastics Gold Medalist Carly Pat...
What if your greatest spiritual battles aren't actually an attack from the enemy, but an agreement you made with your own flesh?
In this episode of The Leader's Cut, Preston sits down with Tim Ross for a conversation that cuts straight to the bone. We love to blame the devil for our exhaustion, our burnout, and our failures. But the uncomfortable question we must ask ourself is — Are we rolling out the red carpet for him?
Fi...
In this episode, Preston sits down for a profound, deeply vulnerable conversation with former Dallas Cowboys star and NFL Hall of Famer DeMarcus Ware. They explore the intersection of elite athletic success, intense personal pain, and ultimate spiritual transformation.
For years, DeMarcus was one of the most feared defenders in NFL history. But his greatest transition didn't happen on the field—it ...
Closed doors aren't punishment — they're preparation.
Are you tired of banging against locked doors in your life, career, or walk with God? In this episode, Preston breaks down the 5 Keys That Open Closed Doors and reveals why you might be experiencing a season where God seems to be moving excruciatingly slowly.
God doesn't just want to hand you a breakthrough; He wants to ensure you ...
We tend to think the “stage” is where we do the most damage to the enemy. But the truth is, the hidden 'cave' is where the real wars are actually won.
In this episode of The Leader’s Cut, Preston Morrison sits down with Brenda Palmer for a raw, unfiltered conversation about what happens when you willingly submit to the hidden seasons with God.
Together, they dive deep into...
Most people treat their past like a liability—something to be hidden away or ‘cleaned up’ before it can ever be useful. But what if parts of your story are actually the keys to someone else’s breakthrough?
In this episode of The Leader’s Cut, Preston Morrison is joined by his "twin," Tim Ross, for a raw conversation about the untapped power of the testimony. We’re movi...

Matt pulls back the curtain on the subtle but dangerous sh...
Ok…I am giving you a heavy, high-stakes tactical assignment. I need your help BIG time, because by the end of this episode, we’re calling for a coordinated, global counter-strike.
There is a massive wave of cultural opposition and fear heading our way, and one of the enemy's top strategies is spiritual amnesia. He wants us to forget the miracles of yesterday so we panic about the battles of ...
Be honest: If God told you the way to save your business or your marriage was to walk in circles and then yell at a wall... would you do it? Or would you start looking for a better 'strategy'?
We love the idea of victory, but we usually hate the instructions required to get there. We want the walls to fall, but we want them to fall in a way that makes sense to our logic. But as we see in the story of Jer...
Let’s be honest — Most of us aren’t actually moving forward. We’re just running away from things that happened years ago, hoping that if we go fast enough, the past won't catch up.
We’ve all heard the advice to "just let it go" or "give it to God," but if it were that easy, why are we still so exhausted? Why does that one mistake from a decade ago still have the power to ruin your Tuesday morning?
In t...
Most of us are trying to force a harvest in a season that was meant for pruning. We claim to want the Promised Land, but we’re doing everything in our power to skip the wilderness. We want the fruit, but we’re terrified of the shears.
In this episode of The Leader’s Cut, Preston Morrison sits down with Jabin Chavez (Lead Pastor of City Light Church, Las Vegas) to discuss the divine mech...
Oftentimes, we claim to live by faith, but most of us won't take a single step without a five-year plan and a guaranteed outcome.
The greatest enemy of your faith isn't necessarily the devil—it’s your demand for predictability. We say we want to follow God into the unknown, but the moment the "wilderness" gets uncomfortable, we start looking for the old ways of Egypt. Let’s talk about ...
"Are you actually okay?”
Most of us have a "Missing Peace" in our lives that we try to fill with everything except the Source. We reach for the promotion, the new house, the hobby, or even a more "spiritual" playlist, hoping the emptiness will finally stop humming in the background. But what if the reason you’re still exhausted isn't because you aren't trying hard enough—but because you’re trying to heal wha...
"The enemy doesn't need to win a massive battle if he can just get you to leave the door unlocked."
"The enemy doesn't need to win a massive battle if he can just get you to leave the door unlocked." Most of us view spiritual warfare as a series of spooky events, but the reality is much more subtle—and much more personal. We often find ourselves in a cycle of either obsessing over the enemy or igno...
"God didn't make you with a cookie-cutter template. So why are you spending so much energy trying to fit into everyone else's mold?"
We spend so much of our lives trying to close our "skill gaps" and fix our weaknesses. We look at the people around us, compare our natural wiring to theirs, and try to force ourselves to operate in lanes we were never anointed for. But what if the key to your purpose isn't...
