Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Conversations, we’re talking about one of the most overlooked truths in leadership: scaling too soon will wreck what you’re trying to build.
Whether you're a church planter, pastor, or entrepreneur, you’ve probably felt the pressure to grow fast, reach more, launch the next thing. But here’s the truth—scale won’t fix your weak spots. It’ll multiply them.
We’ll unpack:


Why bad culture scales just as fast as good culture


How your motive for growth matters more than your model


Why God’s timing won’t match your algorithm


The difference between platform and preparation


And how to build deep before you build wide


You’re not behind. You’re being built. And in a world chasing fast and flashy, we’re choosing faithful and foundational.
If you’ve ever felt like your season is hidden, slow, or small—this episode is for you.
