Episodes
An anonymous author writes one of the boldest openers in the New Testament, and that mystery becomes our first leadership lesson. If the Book of Hebrews can change lives without a name attached, what could happen in our workplaces, teams, and churches if we stopped chasing credit and started lifting others up?
We’re joined by Dr. Sarah Kennedy, a practicing sports medicine physician, who brings a rare mix o...
Someone on your team blows it. Maybe it’s careless, maybe it’s repeated, maybe it crosses a line and damages trust. The real question is what happens next, because your response becomes a leadership moment your whole organization remembers.
We dig into the New Testament book of Philemon, a short letter with big implications for Christian leadership, workplace leadership, and conflict resolution. Onesimus wr...
A half-million dollars shows up across a table at IHOP, a bodybuilding dream collapses under a sudden health scare, and a Bible verse about birds lands with literal force. We’re joined by Chase Bergner, founder of Momentum, to talk about what it looks like when faith and business stop being separate buckets and start shaping the same decisions. He walks us through building a gym without a college roadmap, learning h...
Culture doesn’t collapse overnight. It erodes one compromised choice at a time, one “we’ll deal with it later” leader at a time. That’s why we keep coming back to the Book of Titus, where Paul sends Titus into Crete to do the hard work of fixing leadership and finishing what was left undone.
We talk through what makes Titus so practical for biblical leadership and Christian leadership today: choosing leader...
Paul’s final words hit different when you read them like a leadership memo written from prison. We sit with 2 Timothy as Paul pours courage into Timothy, a younger leader carrying the weight of the church in Ephesus, and we ask what it looks like to lead when pressure is real, critics are loud, and the future feels uncertain. Along the way, we keep it honest and light with a steady dose of dad jokes, because good le...
First Timothy is blunt, practical, and surprisingly modern and that’s why we love it. Tim Lansford and Dr. Dean Posey unpack why these Pastoral Letters read like personal coaching notes from Paul to a younger leader trying to hold the line in Ephesus, a spiritually complicated city with loud competing beliefs and constant pressure to compromise.
We talk about why good theology isn’t “extra credit” for leade...
When expectations collapse and confusion takes over, teams look to the leader to set the tone. We turn to Second Thessalonians for a grounded playbook on navigating disappointment, stopping the rumor mill, and rebuilding momentum with truth, accountability, and steady encouragement. Paul’s counsel to a church wrestling with delays and misinformation lands squarely in today’s challenges: people waiting instead of wor...
A Roman city. A fragile new church. A leader who refuses to rule by force. We unpack 1 Thessalonians to reveal a leadership pattern that still works: care deeply, speak clearly, and follow up relentlessly. Paul’s time in Thessalonica was brief and turbulent, yet he built a bond strong enough to last across distance and danger. That didn’t happen by chance. He shared his life, not just his message, and he equipped ot...
Ever wonder why one public compliment can shift an entire team’s energy? We open with a simple swimming lesson that becomes a metaphor for growth, then dive into Colossians to map a clear path for mission-first leadership. From Paul’s praise of Epaphras to his sweeping picture of Christ’s supremacy, we connect theology to the everyday choices leaders make: what to celebrate, what to resist, and what to repeat until ...
Joy that doesn’t blink in the face of pressure sounds impossible—until you hear Paul write it from a prison cell. We open Philippians and explore how a community born in crisis became a model for resilient leadership, practical humility, and culture that sticks when life gets loud.
We start with the origin story in Acts—chains, an earthquake, a jailer’s turnaround—and trace how those early trials forged a d...
What if the fastest way to a healthier team isn’t a new system, but a clearer identity? We open Ephesians and find a blueprint leaders can live by: doctrine first, practice second. The early chapters ground us in who we are—people shaped by grace, purpose, and unity—so the later chapters can show how belief becomes behavior in meetings, hiring, feedback, and decision-making. That shift from vision to execution becom...
Ever watched a strong team drift off course without anyone noticing until it’s miles from shore? We dig into Galatians as a live case study in mission fidelity, showing how small compromises can compound into culture change and how leaders can steer back with clarity, courage, and grace. With Tim Lansford, Dr. Dean Posey, and guest Elisa, the conversation blends biblical insight with practical leadership moves you c...
If leadership feels harder than it should, you’re not alone—and you’re not broken. We dig into Second Corinthians to uncover why perseverance, integrity, and compassion matter more than perfect plans, and how those choices turn ordinary teams into resilient ones. From construction sites to church staffs to school hallways, the same principles hold: show up on the rough days, be honest about constraints, and keep peo...
What if your team copied your habits for a year—would you like the result? We dive into 1 Corinthians to tackle the leadership traps that still derail organizations today: personality-driven factions, fuzzy decision rights, performative authority, and freedom misused as license. Paul’s letters offer a sharper way forward—authority redefined as stewardship, character strong enough to imitate, and love as the engine o...
Ever feel like you said it clearly and people still missed the point? We take a fresh look at Romans 10 and Romans 12 to unpack why messages don’t land, how to fix that gap, and what it means to lead with a renewed mind and a humble heart. Dean draws on decades in the pulpit and Tim brings the builder’s eye for systems as we turn ancient wisdom into modern tools you can use today at home, at work, and in your commun...
A new year deserves more than a crowded resolution list; it calls for a sharper why. We kick off 2026 with laughter, real stories, and a grounded plan to focus your energy where it counts. Starting a fresh journey through Romans, we explore how purpose, practice, and perspective turn good intentions into durable habits that lead to growth at home, at work, and in faith.
We dive into Romans 1:16 to uncover a...
Ready for a New Year reset that sticks? We blend joyful banter and unapologetically corny dad jokes with a clear, practical framework for purpose-driven leadership. Between coughs and groans, we dig into what it really means to lead from the front—drawing on the Greek sense of a leader as the one who stands in front and pilots the group—and why that posture matters more than any resolution made at midnight.
A little Christmas cheer, a few groan-worthy dad jokes, and a surprisingly practical deep dive into Acts—this one brings warmth and wisdom in equal measure. We start with a laugh and then move straight into Acts 6 to ask a hard question every leader faces: how do you protect your core mission without doing everything yourself?
We unpack how the apostles solved a real growth crisis by empowering seven truste...
New chapter, fresh playbook. We close the long trek through John and step into Acts with a simple goal: translate the early church’s momentum into practical leadership you can use this quarter. Between holiday chuckles and a milestone anniversary, we trace how Luke documents a team that loses its founder’s physical presence and still accelerates—with planning, empowerment, and courage.
We break down the str...
A hundred episodes in, and we’re more convinced than ever that leadership rises or falls on how we handle failure, focus, and people. We mark the milestone with gratitude for listeners across 451 cities and 40 countries, then get straight to the heart of John 19–21: what it looks like for a leader to restore someone who stumbled—and why restoration, when done right, can change the trajectory of a team.
We w...
