    Gritty Leadership | The essential difference between those who can & those who can't | Part 4

    After the vision is cast, the enthusiastic response, and the naive, gun-ho attempts come the inevitable resistance to the plan. What separates the REAL leader from the leader who opts to quit is a solid mindset of grit. You either have it, or you don't, and Nehemiah had it in spades. Let's look at how he overcame opposition from outside the wall, within his own people, and inside the leadership of Jerusalem.

    The Art of the Buy In | Empathy and Purpose | Leadership Part 3 | EP 4

    As a leader, you are tasked with taking a group of diverse individuals and galvanizing them toward a shared goal. You are the one with the vision, the drive, and the experience, BUT they are the ones who will do the lion's share of the work: neither side of this equation can succeed without the other. So what you need to be an effective agent of change and progress is for your people to "buy in" to the vision as though it were their own. How do you do that you ask? Well, tune in today and fin...

    Humble Beginnings | Nehemiah | Leadership Part 2

    Welcome to episode 3 of the For Real Life and Godliness podcast! Today, we continue our leadership series by exploring Nehemiah and identifying the first of three essential qualities that every REAL leader must possess: humility. Nehemiah held no position or title that would lead him to seek the governorship of Judea. However, because no one else was willing to step up, he decided to take on this responsibility. He boldly asked the king for leave and ventured into the unknown to do what he c...

    Who in the world is Pastor Will? | Intro to Season 2 | EP 1

    On today's podcast, I want to introduce myself to those who don't know me and reintroduce myself to those who do.

    The doctrine of good works & why the Church neglects it | FRLG | Ep 17

    Hard to believe we've made it to episode 17. I want anyone who's been here from the beginning to know that I appreciate you. Today on the For Real Life & Godliness podcast we are going to discuss the dualistic spirit the church seems to have towards the obvious commands of God: our propensity to do what we're told not to, & not to do what we are told to. (Kind of a Roman 7 dilemma but not really; more of. Galatians 1 issue) We'll be looking at Titus 3 verses 8 & 9. Find the vide...

    What did God say?? | How to interpret the Bible | Part 2

This is why we have so much confusion within the Church, & even within local bodies of believers. But it shouldn't be this complicated! Today we discuss the very basics of interpreting the Bible (Hermeneutics) & how you can finally read the Bible properly & "rightly divide the Word Truth."

    Why you can't understand the Bible you're reading | Part 1 | Context

    How many times have you read a portion of scripture with the express purpose of finding "what it means to you."? Would it shock you to know that is the exact opposite of how you're supposed to read it? Most people today are looking for what the Bible is saying to them & paying no attention to what the Bible is simply saying. This is why we have so much confusion within the Church, & even within local bodies of believers. But it shouldn't be this complicated! Today we discuss the...
