Leading Second Podcast

Life often comes to us in the form of tests, and tests always proceed promotion. Before we move to the next season God has for us, we must past the test this season has for us. In this message, I share on a vital test - The Test of Time. There are many parts to our spiritual walk and sometimes we run into areas and seasons that could potentially derail us. I believe this message will give you perspective for how God uses the seasons of our lives to shape and form us. This season we really wanted our listeners to get to hear my heart and to be able to see me a bit more up close and personal. In this episode, you will get to hear me speak as I present a message to one of the churches in our Leading Second community. In this episode I talk about: -That time during our struggles and how to keep from derailing. -The gap between God making a promise and seeing the promise fulfilled often can feel like you are waiting and waiting. -What I call “the middle” as I speak directly to the mess that lives in the middle of our struggles and the importance of the time we spend in it. Our hope with this episode is that you walk away feeling like you aren’t alone in your battles. We hope you feel encouraged by your trials and we hope that you learn how to navigate that messy middle. The Leading Second community is here for those seasons and the questions that arise. We’re with you heart and soul. Let’s run strong for the Kingdom together.

Why does stewardship matter to young leaders? In this episode, we are joined by Chris Brown, servant of the local church as both a communicator and coach, for a comprehensive conversation centered around stewardship and promotion. We explore the key differences between God's way and the world's way in regards to entitlement and gratitude and how they pertain to young leaders in ministry.

In this special episode, Leading Second founder Brandon Stewart, sheds some wisdom on a few unanswered questions submitted by leaders in the second chair at Team Church Conference 2018.

Season One Ep. 012 // Jonathan Malm on The Come Back Effect First impressions matter greatly to our guests at church on the weekend. And leaders who lead from the second chair, we play a big part of that experience. Maybe bigger than we realize. In this episode, Christian creative and author, Jonathan Malm of San Antonio, TX, joins us for a discussion on “The Come Back Effect” — how to create a church atmosphere that will make people want to come back and why it’s important. As church volunteers and leaders, it’s easy to get stuck focusing on our function (ie. opening a door, waving, passing out a flyer), but what is far more important than our job and function is exuding our church’s culture. Culture and a feeling of belongingness is why people “come back.” Welcome to Season One of the Leading Second Podcast. This podcast releases every Thursday morning.
