Episode 307: Getting to the Heart of Pastoral Leadership

It’s easy to blame our staff, our church, or our circumstances for ministry stress. But often the real issue lies deeper—in our own hearts. In this episode, we unpack how unchecked ambition, workaholism, and misplaced identity quietly undermine pastoral health. With insights from Genesis 3, Romans 12, and real coaching conversations, John and Jim talk about how pastors can move from surface fixes to genuine transformation.
