The Developing Imperfect Leaders podcast is intended to develop imperfect people into better leaders. None of us are perfect, fully-realized people, which is why leadership development exists in the first place! Since we are NOT Jesus, we all have room for growth in our lives and we need help along the way. Therefore, each episode is designed to help anyone to become a better leader by examining a provocative question on a relevant leadership topic, looking at quotes from beneficial resources, and thinking through the practical application for growing in our imperfect leadership. If you are a perfect person who has life, relationships, and leadership all figured out, then this podcast is NOT for you. But, if you are someone who loves learning, growing, and improving. then this is something you'll enjoy and benefit from.

  2. Will Jesus really be enough in the end?

    Will Jesus really be enough in the end?

    In this episode, the team looks at growing as followers of Christ. We discuss methods for continuing to pursue growth in Christ over the years and see how Jesus becomes bigger as time passes. Quote of the Week: Today’s quote comes from C.S. Lewis in the book, “Prince Caspian.” For context, Aslan is the Jesus figure in this story and Lucy is the character speaking with him. “Aslan" said Lucy "you're bigger". "That is because you are older, little one" answered he. "Not because you are?" "I am not. But every year you grow, you will find me bigger.” Subscribe to our newsletter.

  3. Why would anyone become a Christian?

    2025. 03. 04.

    Why would anyone become a Christian?

    In this episode we share our testimonies and some gospel basics. We explore the new realities that happen when we become a Christian, including the things we gain, lose, and change. Quote of the Week: Today’s quote comes from Book VIII of Augustine’s Confessions. He writes of his conversion, “So was I speaking and weeping in the most bitter contrition of my heart, when, lo! I heard from a neighboring house a voice, as of a boy or girl, I know not, chanting and oft repeating, 'Take up and read; take up and read.' … I opened, and in silence read that section on which my eyes first fell: 'Not in rioting and drunkenness… but put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh in its lusts.' … No further would I read; nor needed I: for instantly … all the darkness of doubt vanished away.” Subscribe to our newsletter.

  4. How do I navigate leadership and mental health?

    2025. 02. 25.

    How do I navigate leadership and mental health?

    In this episode, the team considers what it means to lead others while navigating ongoing mental health problems.  Quote of the Week:  Today’s quote comes from an article by Joe Carter on the Gospel Coalition website titled, “How Church Leaders Can Be A Non-anxious Presence.” He writes,  “Being a nonanxious presence requires displaying a calm and gentle demeanor, especially in the face of crisis or conflict. This calmness isn’t about being disengaged or indifferent but rather being composed, thoughtful, and gentle with others, which provides a stabilizing influence. A nonanxious leader must manage his emotional reactivity. Emotional reactivity occurs when an external event triggers intense emotions disproportionate to the cause. If we’re nonanxious, we won’t succumb to such emotional reactivity because we don’t get swept up in the anxieties, fears, or emotional dramas of the groups or individuals we’re leading. We avoid knee-jerk reactions to situations and instead respond thoughtfully and deliberately, which can help de-escalate tense situations and encourage others to think and respond calmly.” Subscribe to our newsletter.

  5. Should my mental health run my life?

    2025. 02. 18.

    Should my mental health run my life?

    In this episode, the team examines the relationship between mental health, spirituality, therapeutic culture, and following God in a fallen world. Quote of the Week: Today’s quote comes from C.S. Lewis in The Problem of Pain and it reads, “Mental pain is less dramatic than physical pain, but it is more common and also more hard to bear. The frequent attempt to conceal mental pain increases the burden: it is easier to say “My tooth is aching” than to say “My heart is broken.” Subscribe to our newsletter.

    Why do my parents get under my skin?

    In this episode, the team solves all your issues with your parents! NOT! The team discusses the unique ways that our parents can get under our skin, and what it looks like to not turn back into a teenager when we are with them. They consider the importance of emotional intelligence, healthy conflict, and following Jesus as we relate to our parents. Each episode features a leading question, quote of the week, and a Growing Together segment intended to help imperfect leaders to grow. Quote of the Week: Matthew 7:1-5 in the New Testament “Judge not, that you be not judged. 2 For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you. 3 Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.” Subscribe to our newsletter.
