For centuries, members of the B’doul Bedouin tribe lived in the caves around the ancient city of Petra, Jordan.

But if the residents are forced to leave, and if their heritage has been permanently changed, then what exactly is being preserved?

In this episode of Conversations , I’m walking through 7 leadership truths I’ve been personally processing—thoughts that are shaping how I lead, grow, and build others. Whether you lead in a church, business, or at home, these truths are for you. We’ll talk about: • Why being in front doesn’t mean you’re leading • How real leaders create clarity—not chase it • The necessity of accountability in leadership • Why systems > potential • The trap of leading to impress • How tolerating dysfunction shapes culture • And the ultimate role of a leader: not being the hero, but building them This is a shorter, straight-to-the-point episode—but one that I believe could give you a thought that shifts everything. One sentence can change the way you lead.

Is your church really short on volunteers—or are you short on leadership? In this episode, we challenge a common excuse in ministry: “We just need more people.” Using the example of Solomon’s wisdom and spiritual leadership, we unpack why the issue isn’t the people you're missing—it's the leadership you’re bringing. We talk real solutions: ✅ Leading from conviction, not convenience ✅ Creating a culture people actually want to join ✅ Letting go of manipulation ✅ Taking full ownership of your role ✅ Praying after you've started leading If you’re tired of begging people to serve and ready to become a leader worth following, this one’s for you.…
