This is the second episode of Chris and Tracy’s conversation with Steve Spillman of True Potential. What has God called you to say? How does He want you to tell others your story? How can you help others discover God’s love? Steve offers great wisdom for how to get stories to others. He talks about the latest books by Chris and Tracy, “Equilibrium” and “Second Chair Leadership.” He believes we can take time to read books which can make our lives much better. He also believes our words can make the lives of many others much better. What are ways we can work in today’s media to reach today’s audiences? Steve helps answer that question and many others. Listen and be a good steward of telling your story. Be a true steward of God’s story. Share your message with the world.

Beth Erwin is again the guest for Tracy and Chris in the Next Step Leadership podcast. In this episode, they talk more about the amazing message of Beth’s book Wander No More: Stepping Out of the Wilderness Into Abundant Life. Bad things do happen. Life isn’t always easy. People often distance themselves from God’s love and joy. But we all have a purpose. God does have huge plans. The abundant life is for us. Where are you in your story? Think about those you lead. Where are they in their stories? Take steps. Take the right steps. Believe and live and share the gospel. Many Beths will be changed by your servant leadership.

In this episode of Next Step Leadership, Chris and Tracy talk with Beth Erwin. Beth’s book is Wander No More: Stepping Out of the Wilderness Into Abundant Life. She tells her story of a life with many seasons. Coming from a background of pain and sadness to now leading a ministry of healing, Beth offers assurance for those who face difficulties. Her battles and uncertainty seemed impossible. But God did His work in her life. Beth is now serving the Lord who rescued her. Think about those who are around you, living lives similar to what Beth endured. Offer them hope. Show them the love of Jesus. Inspire them to step out of the wilderness and into abundant life. Encourage them to wander no more.

This episode of Next Step Leadership Podcast continues the conversation Tracy Reynolds and Chris Maxwell have with Eddie and Beth Taylor. The Taylors are spending time pouring into the leadership of churches during these difficult seasons. Instead of being defeated by church conflict and division or an anti-church culture, they believe we can walk in joy globally. Through the books and resources they’ve written, the Taylors help people study God’s word. Rather than settling with church entertainment, it is time for followers of Christ to be disciples who study, learn, pray, grow, and develop. Let this episode inspire you to go deeper in your own spiritual growth. Ask yourself important questions. Who are you helping train and develop? What are you providing so young followers of Christ can learn? Are you living with the joy of the Lord as your strength? These difficult days are wonderful opportunities for each of us to serve toward the building of the kingdom.
