Listen "Growing Forward Ep. 5: Not Too Big to Take Out the Trash: 5 Surprising Lessons from Leaders who Last"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Growing Forward, Pastor Andy Comer offers a reflection on sustaining a life of meaningful ministry, drawing on the wisdom of Pastor Chuck Swindoll. He shares five key principles for finishing well, a timely message given the alarming statistic that a significant number of seminary graduates leave ministry within five years. These surprising lessons, gleaned from Swindoll's decades of faithful service, include cultivating humility by being willing to "take out the trash," developing a "tender heart and a tough hide" to navigate criticism, and guarding against common pitfalls. Ministry leaders can trust God to open doors rather than forcing opportunities, and ultimately, remember that serving God's Church is the highest privilege!
