[Podcast] Episode 209: Leading from the Heart of the Father with Shaun Smit

Ministry is an ever-evolving calling, but perhaps the greatest adjustment the Church needs is in her leadership paradigm. On today’s episode of the AVAIL podcast, seasoned ministry leader Shaun Smit discusses a key observation he has made throughout his journey as a ministry leader—too many leaders are drawing the bride to themselves instead of to Jesus. Today, Shaun calls for a kingdom-centered leadership paradigm shift as stewards and imparters of God’s grace and glory to the Church.
