    Leadership, Self-Control & the Power of Character - Proverbs 14:28-29 | May 7, 2026

    Welcome to One Single Story. I'm Pastor Stephen Mizell, joined by Pastor Jay Rivenbark and Pastor Wendy Korbusieski. Today we are in Proverbs 14:28-29, where Solomon ties a leader's influence directly to their self-control - and warns that a hot temper is a mark of foolishness, not strength. We discuss why patience creates the space for wisdom, how anger narrows your perspective and leads to decisions you will regret, and why character - not charisma - is what keeps a leader in the room long-term. "Charisma opens a lot of doors. Character lets you stay in the room." One Single Story is a weekday Bible study podcast from Open Door Church in Edenton, North Carolina.

    Welcome to One Single Story. Each weekday, Pastor Stephen Mizell and Pastor Jay Rivenbark and co-host, Pastor Sheryl Daughety, open the One Year Bible for a brief, meaningful conversation around Scripture. Today we are in Psalm 99, exploring the holiness of God - what it means, why it matters, and why it should draw us to worship. Scripture Focus: Psalm 99 - God's holiness declared three times, alongside His faithfulness, mercy, and justice toward those who call on Him. In This Episode: What "holy" truly means - set apart, sacred, and completely distinct from anything else Lessons from Moses, Aaron, and Samuel as ordinary people who called on God and were heard How justice and mercy work together, and why the cross is the ultimate expression of both Key Quote: "You can't comprehend or appreciate the value of God's mercy unless you also understand He's a God of justice. If you focus on one and not the other, things get out of balance pretty quickly." One Single Story is a daily devotional podcast from Open Door Church in Edenton, North Carolina.
