Episode Synopsis

In this powerful episode of Rise Up Tonight, we tackle a tough but necessary topic: How to handle narcissistic leaders in a biblical way. Whether in the workplace, ministry, or church, toxic leadership can cause deep wounds and confusion.Drawing from the story of Diotrephes in 3 John 9, we explore how self-centered leaders twist truth, manipulate others, and harm a healthy community. But Scripture gives us a roadmap for responding:Stay Anchored in Truth – Don’t let deception shake your foundation.Confront with Courage and Humility – Speak truth in love when possible.Guard Your Heart – Protect your peace and identity in Christ.Know When to Step Away – Sometimes separation is an act of spiritual stewardship.This episode reminds listeners that Jesus modeled servant leadership, not domination. And even when people overlook or mistreat you—God sees, God knows, and God will act.
