Podcast appearances and mentions of christian leaders

In this episode, Casey and Mike discuss the impactful conversation with Coach Dan Skirka, focusing on the importance of building a culture that transcends mere wins and losses. They explore the significance of leaders believing in their team members, the essence of living beyond one's professional role.

Natalie Runion returns to Shifting Culture with her new book I Don't Even Like Women: And Other Lies That Get in the Way of Sacred Sisterhood. Behind the provocative title is a deeper story: how the church has too often handed women scripts of competition, gossip, and scarcity and how those scripts can be rewritten into something truer and freer. In this conversation, we talk about identity, trust, and the work of forgiveness. We explore what women's ministry has been, and what it could become when collaboration replaces competition, when community is rooted in abundance, and when Jesus' vision of sacred sisterhood begins to take hold. This isn't just about women's ministry. It's about how all of us, men and women, learn to build communities that dignify rather than diminish.Natalie Runion is the USA Today bestselling author of Raised to Stay and The House That Jesus Built, as well as the creator of the Raised to Stay Community (@raisedtostay). She lives in Kentucky with her husband, Tony, and their two daughters, where they work together to provide training to leaders in pursuit of a healthy church.Natalie's Book:I Don't Even Like WomenNatalie's Recommendations:Becoming the Pastor's WifeCrushing ChaosSubscribe to Our Substack: Shifting CultureConnect with Joshua: jjohnson@allnations.usGo to www.shiftingculturepodcast.com to interact and donate.

In this episode of Chosen By Jesus with Kelley Tyan and Taylor Tyan, we dive deep into why God doesn't call the qualified — He qualifies the called.

Through real-life examples and biblical encouragement, we'll show you how to trade the pain of regret for the blessing of obedience.

This analysis examines how traditional Christian teachings are being challenged by contemporary moral frameworks, particularly around gender identity and medical ethics. As religious institutions navigate these tensions, questions emerge about whether accommodation to cultural shifts represents compassion or compromise of core doctrinal principles. ____________ VERITY METALS Convert your 401k or IRA into physical gold to protect your retirement from a volatile stock market and inflation.

Scripture: “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” – Philippians 4:13 In today's episode, we're sharing the truth that's carried us through every trial, every unknown, and every “I can't do this” moment—you CAN do hard things… but not in your own strength. With Jesus by your side, nothing is impossible. From breast cancer to bold faith, from identity struggles to spiritual growth, Kelley and Taylor Tyan open up about the power of God's strength in our weakness—and why you're never meant to walk through hard things alone. This one's for the woman who's in the fight, in the waiting, or in the wilderness—Jesus is with you, and you are stronger than you know.

In this wide-ranging and deeply personal conversation, Pat Kahnke speaks with Reverend Tihomir Kukolja—a Christian leader shaped by war, steeped in reconciliation work, and unafraid to speak hard truths. Kukolja reflects on the collapse of Yugoslavia, the rise of Donald Trump, the horrors of Gaza, and the dangerous theology driving evangelical silence and complicity. Drawing from decades of international ministry and firsthand experience in Sarajevo, he warns that the same forces that tore apart the Balkans are at work in America—and in the church. Together, they explore: • The emotional and political costs of evangelical eschatology • How Christian nationalism mirrors religious extremism • Why “criticizing Israel” is not antisemitism • The model of Jesus vs. the model of Trump • How truth-telling, not niceness, heals division This is not abstract theology. It's about how we lead, how we love, and whether our faith contributes to peace—or war. “Christian nationalism and Islamic jihadism are two sides of the same coin—when faith is used to justify violence, it's no longer the faith of Jesus.” – Tihomir Kukolja If you've been searching for faithful resistance and global Christian perspective, this episode is a must-listen.

In this episode, Mike Linch interviews Jesse DeYoung, who shares insights on navigating organizational doubt and the challenges faced at Flat Irons Church. They discuss the importance of understanding different levels of doubt, building trust within teams, and the significance of cultural alignment in hiring. Jesse emphasizes the need for transparency and vulnerability in leadership, as well as the necessity of treating doubt as an ally rather than an adversary. The conversation also touches on the personal experiences of leaders and the impact of doubt on their effectiveness.Welcome to the Linch with a Leader Podcast, where you're invited to join the spiritual principles behind big success, with host Mike Linch.Subscribe to the channel so you never miss an episode: Watch: @linchwithaleader Prefer just listening?

In today's episode of the Center for Baptist Leadership podcast, William Wolfe sits down with Robert Burns, Mayor of Monroe in North Carolina, to discuss political persecution for being an outspoken Christian leader.   Robert Burns is the Mayor of Monroe, North Carolina, elected in November 2023 after a historic coin-toss victory following a tied election with 970 votes. A Christian, husband, and father of six, Burns is a conservative Republican known for his outspoken leadership and commitment to economic growth, public safety, and family values. He has focused on revitalizing downtown Monroe, expanding infrastructure, and attracting new industries. Burns, a newcomer to politics, emphasizes transparency and community engagement, often using social media and his YouTube channel to connect with residents. His tenure has faced controversy, including a 2024 censure by the Monroe City Council over a proclamation celebrating the Roe v. Wade reversal and a 2025 no-confidence vote for his communication style and use of city branding. Despite this, Burns remains committed to making Monroe a thriving, family-friendly city.   Learn more about Robert Burns's work: https://x.com/RobertBurns82 https://www.monroenc.org/directory.aspx?eid=153   ––––––   Follow Center for Baptist Leadership across Social Media: X / Twitter – https://twitter.com/BaptistLeaders Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/people/Center-For-Baptist-Leadership/61556762144277/ Rumble – https://rumble.com/c/c-6157089 YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@CenterforBaptistLeadership Website – https://centerforbaptistleadership.org/   To book William for media appearances or speaking engagements, please contact him at media@centerfor­baptistleadership.org.   Follow Us on Twitter: William Wolfe - https://twitter.com/William_E_Wolfe Richard Henry - https://twitter.com/RThenry83   Renew the SBC from within and defend the SBC from those who seek its destruction, donate today: https://centerforbaptistleadership.org/donate/   The Center for Baptist Leadership Podcast is powered by American Reformer, recorded remotely in the United States by William Wolfe, and edited by Jared Cummings.   Subscribe to the Center for Baptist Leadership Podcast: Distribute our RSS Feed – https://centerforbaptistleadership.podbean.com/ Apple Podcasts – https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/center-for-baptist-leadership/id1743074575 Spotify – https://open.spotify.com/show/0npXohTYKWYmWLsHkalF9t Amazon Music // Audible – https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9ababbdd-6c6b-4ab9-b21a-eed951e1e67b BoomPlay – https://www.boomplaymusic.com/podcasts/96624 TuneIn – Coming Soon iHeartRadio – https://iheart.com/podcast/170321203 Listen Notes – https://lnns.co/2Br0hw7p5R4 Pandora – Coming Soon PlayerFM – https://player.fm/series/3570081 Podchaser – https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/the-center-for-baptist-leaders-5696654 YouTube Podcasts – https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFMvfuzJKMICA7wi3CXvQxdNtA_lqDFV

What if moral failure isn't just a personal weakness… but something we've helped create?We've seen it too many times: another Christian leader falls. Another headline. Another apology video. But what if the root problem isn't just lust or lack of accountability… what if it's the culture we've built?In this episode, we sit down with Kris Vallotton — a leader who's walked with pastors, pioneers, and fallen giants behind the scenes — to ask the hard questions: • How do you actually prevent moral failure, not just respond to it? • What are the warning signs no one talks about until it's too late? • What kind of church culture actually fosters purity and integrity? • And when someone does fall… what does real restoration look like?Whether you're a young leader, a disillusioned churchgoer, or someone who's been burned by moral failure up close, this conversation is raw, honest, and necessary.This isn't about blame. It's about building a church culture where integrity can thrive before things fall apart.

In this powerful episode of Linch with a Leader, Mike Linch sits down with Nadine Sophia Evans Oliver—Senior Special Counsel at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission—to talk about faith, leadership, and unwavering hope through life's most painful moments.From growing up in Brooklyn as a first-generation American, to studying in Japan, to climbing the ranks in big law, Nadine's story is one of grit, grace, and God's relentless pursuit. But her greatest testimony? Walking through the valley of grief after losing her husband—and discovering that hope can still rise.This conversation is for anyone who's ever felt like life broke them… and needs to be reminded that God still has a plan.Mike's Biggest Takeaway's:- Cultural exposure in Japan shaped her worldview and communication skills.- Her parents instilled unconditional love despite financial struggles.- Education was a lifeline for Nadine, leading her to law school.- Faith played a crucial role in her life, especially during hardships.- Nadine's career path was influenced by her desire to help others.- She faced significant challenges while working at the SEC.- Loss of her husband taught her about hope and rebuilding life.- Nadine emphasizes the importance of community support during tough times.- Her new relationship highlights the beauty of second chances.Welcome to the Linch with a Leader Podcast, where you're invited to join the spiritual principles behind big success, with host Mike Linch.Subscribe to the channel so you never miss an episode: Watch: @linchwithaleader Prefer just listening?

This summer, we're taking a short break from our regular podcast format, and instead have selected various installments from past message series given by James Emery White at Mecklenburg Community Church where he serves as the Senior Pastor. Today's episode comes from a series we called "The Science of God" with this installment focusing on "The Science of Faith." You see, there are many deal-breakers for those who are unchurched when it comes to the Christian faith. The biggest deal-breaker, though, seems to be what lies in the realm of public truth, meaning science. The existence of God, creation, evolution, the latest discoveries in astrophysics... that's where people long for answers. But how do you find answers when it comes to something like faith? Episode Links Below you'll find the link to the full series if that's something you are interested in checking out, along with the sources that were used in the development of the message itself: "The Science of God" Ed Stetzer, “When Will Churches Be Back? Vital Information for Churches and Christian Leaders,” Christianity Today, January 13, 2021. Ian Barbour, When Science Meets Religion: Enemies, Strangers, or Partners? (London: SPCK, 2000). For an informed critique of many of the more popular aspects of applied naturalism, see Phillip E. Johnson, Reason in the Balance: The Case Against Naturalism in Science, Law and Education (Downers Grove: InterVarsity Press, 1995). Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark (New York: Random House, 1995). How I Changed My Mind About Evolution: Evangelicals Reflect on Faith and Science, ed. by Kathryn Applegate and J.B. Stump (IVP). Nietzsche's famed “God is dead” passage can be found in section 125 of The Gay Science, available in The Portable Nietzsche, ed. Walter Kaufmann (New York: Penguin, 1982).

“Dad went to war last night” read Vance Boelter's text to his family in the early hours of June 14. This was sent after his shooting rampage aimed at Democratic lawmakers, which left two dead and two critically wounded.  Turns out Boelter is an ordained pastor in a church associated with the New Apostolic Reformation, which sees the world as a spiritual battlefield and whose leaders have preached that political enemies are possessed by demons.  This is not some small fringe movement. Key figures in the Trump administration are adherents. We revisit this apocalyptic evangelical Christian cult and consider its political violence and religious extremism.

When public ministers call each other out online, is it prophetic accountability or just digital drama? How do we handle calling out in the name of faith vs. building people up in love and humility?Over the past few weeks, Tiffany Montgomery—founder of Covered by God—sparked major waves by going live with intense prophetic warnings, calling out not only Apostle Matthew Stevenson but also other well-known Christian leaders like Eric Mason, Jackie Hill Perry, and Preston Perry. These callouts included accusations of doctrinal confusion and even prophesying Stevenson's demise, which led to a whirlwind of responses across social media.How do you feel watching Christian leaders call each other out online?
