Episode Details

Join us in this heart-searching and thought-provoking podcast episode as we dive into the essence of spiritual leadership with Marcus Honeysett! After discussing some of the technical issues of preaching and the opportunities that the pulpit has for shaping a culture of truth and love, Mike and Marcus then speak about the limitations of the pulpit, and the importance of imitation and emulation in the life of a spiritual leader. 

Discover why the character of a preacher outweighs mere competencies, and how imitation and emulation play vital roles in shaping effective leaders. 

Marcus also helps us explore power dynamics and how to foster a healthy atmosphere of accountability within a church context, and the value of not only having healthy church policies and procedures, but how to communicate them to the members of the church congregation. 

If you're passionate about personal growth, spiritual leadership, and creating a positive impact within your faith community, this podcast is a must-listen!
