Boundaries or Bitterness?

Episode 21

Thursday, December 18, 2025 • Duration 01:40:01

Church leaders are burning out—exhausted, overextended, and unsure where biblical love ends and unhealthy patterns begin.

In this episode, we have an honest, biblical conversation about boundaries, forgiveness, and emotional health in ministry. If you’ve ever questioned whether setting boundaries makes you unloving—or whether forgiveness means allowing someone to hurt you again—this conversation is for you.

We tackle the hard questions many leaders quietly wrestle with:
Am I called to be a doormat?
Why do unhealthy people keep disrupting my ministry?
Can I forgive someone I don’t trust?
Did Jesus ever step away to protect His peace?

This episode is direct, grounded in Scripture, and deeply relevant for pastors and leaders who want to lead with love without losing themselves.

Why I No Longer Lead an Attractional Model Church

Episode 18

Monday, June 2, 2025 • Duration 01:20:16
