Drawing from his experiences as a physician, pastor, and scholar, he explores how shifts in cultural attitudes toward authority and integrity sparked his conviction that the church needs a leadership reset. Motivated by witnessing both effective and failed leadership, he emphasizes the importance of humility, consistency, and servant-hearted influence rooted in the New Testament. His work calls for a deeper, context-aware, spiritually grounded approach to leading well—beginning at home and extending outward into all areas of life and ministry.Purchase The Christian Leader Blueprint book today: https://www.ryanfranklin.org/blueprintbookDownload The Christian Leader Blueprint – Short Guide (Free): https://www.ryanfranklin.org/blueprint Take the Christian Leader™ Self-Assessment (Free):https://www.ryanfranklin.org/clselfassessment Learn more about Christian Leader™ Community Coaching:https://www.ryanfranklin.org/communitycoaching YouTube and Audio Podcast: https://www.ryanfranklin.org/leaderpodcast Connect with Ryan: Email: info@ryanfranklin.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rnfranklin/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rnfranklin/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rnfranklin/ Audio mastering by Apostolic Audio: https://www.apostolic-audio.com#leadership, #thoughtleadership, #ministry, #pastor, #pastors, #churches, #leadershiptraining, #churchleader, #churchleaders, #influence, #leadershipdevelopment, #coaching, #executivecoach, #leadershipcoaching, #productivitycoach, #productivity, #growthmindset, #theproductiveleader, #ChristianLeader, #ChristianLeadership, #LeadershipPodcast, #FaithAndBusiness, #PodcastInterview, #ChristianEntrepreneurship, #KingdomImpact, #PodcastInspiration, #LeadershipJourney, #PurposeDriven, #ChristianPodcast, #LeadershipEssentials, #LeadershipFundamentalsSend us a text

Titus1:11 Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, for the sake of the faith of God's elect and their knowledge of the truth, which accords with godliness, 2 in hope of eternal life, which God, who never lies, promised before the ages began 3 and at the proper time manifested in his word through the preaching with which I have been entrusted by the command of God our Savior; 4 To Titus, my true child in a common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior. 5 This is why I left you in Crete, so that you might put what remained into order, and appoint elders in every town as I directed you— 6 if anyone is above reproach, the husband of one wife, and his children are believers and not open to the charge of debauchery or insubordination. 7 For an overseer, as God's steward, must be above reproach. He must not be arrogant or quick-tempered or a drunkard or violent or greedy for gain, 8 but hospitable, a lover of good, self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplined. 9 He must hold firm to the trustworthy word as taught, so that he may be able to give instruction in sound doctrine and also to rebuke those who contradict it. 10 For there are many who are insubordinate, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision party. 11 They must be silenced, since they are upsetting whole families by teaching for shameful gain what they ought not to teach. 12 One of the Cretans, a prophet of their own, said, “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons.” 13 This testimony is true. Therefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith, 14 not devoting themselves to Jewish myths and the commands of people who turn away from the truth. 15 To the pure, all things are pure, but to the defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their minds and their consciences are defiled. 16 They profess to know God, but they deny him by their works. They are detestable, disobedient, unfit for any good work.

If you've ever found yourself stuck in patterns you can't explain or hitting a wall in your leadership that won't budge—there's a reason. In this episode of the Emotionally Healthy Leader Podcast, I explore one of the most overlooked but powerful forces shaping your life and leadership: your family of origin. The truth is, we all carry a family story. And unless we allow Jesus to meet us there—deep in those places—our leadership, relationships, and even our ability to hear God will be compromised. I'll walk you through how your family of origin influences your emotional maturity, your capacity to lead from your true self, and your ability to discern God's voice. I'll also share stories from my own journey and those of other leaders to help you recognize where you might be stuck—and how to move forward. This is part one of a two-part series you don't want to miss. The work of transformation begins with you.

In this powerful sermon, Pastor Karl draws a vivid parallel between the Revolutionary War's militiamen and minutemen and the life of a Christ follower, urging us to live as dedicated “minutemen” of faith. Reflecting on his recent trip to Boston, Karl connects the historic battles of Lexington and Concord to the call in 2 Timothy 2 to be strong in God's grace, not our own strength. He challenges us to flee from what dishonors God and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with unwavering commitment. Using Paul's metaphors of a soldier, athlete, and farmer, Karl emphasizes enduring suffering, staying focused on God's mission, and avoiding distractions that entangle us. This message inspires us to embody authentic faith, rely on God's unmerited favor, and live purposefully for Christ's kingdom, ensuring our lives align with His calling.Watch all our sermons on our YouTube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 9:00am & 10:30am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

You don't need a mic to preach. You are the sermon. In this fire-filled message, Pastor Marty drops a prophetic word straight from 2 Corinthians 3—you are a living epistle, not written in ink but by the Spirit of the living God. You're not just carrying glory… you're leaking it. This isn't Old Testament visitation—it's New Testament habitation. That means what came on Moses now lives in you. He calls out the drift—where we wait for the church to bring glory when God's already put it in us. He warns against worshiping personalities, pastors, and platforms instead of walking in your own Spirit-filled identity. And then—boom—a prophetic reminder from Haggai: “The glory of this house will be greater than the former.” This isn't a call to admire revival. It's a call to be revival. So the question isn't can people see God in you. It's: What chapter are they reading when they look at your life?

More than anything else, Jill shares that God has impacted her career as a therapist.  “While at Livingstone College, I started out as a Biology major, but Chemistry told me “no”.  I knew I wanted to obtain a bachelor's degree at the very least.  The holy spirit directed me to speak with Dr. Robert MacKinnon in the Psychology department, who was my mentor and advisor.  He told me I could start right into the Psychology major based on my academic accomplishments.  He told me to work and go to school so that after I finish school, I would be in a good position to succeed,” she says.  After Livingstone, Jill would set her sights on obtaining her master's degree.  She attended NC A&T and was even able to land a paid internship while in school.  The advice she received from her mentor continued to pay dividends in her life. Life has come with a few ups and downs for Jill.  To be honest, those challenges have helped to make her who she is.  “I have been emotionally and physically abused, as well as sexually abused.  I was part of a marriage that didn't work.  What I had to realize was that I had to love myself first.  Having a foundation in a church home at Love and Faith Christian Fellowship helped me in more ways than I ever could have imagined.  I felt right at home there.  I became involved in the church, which allowed me to be more than a member.  I am in leadership and serve as a Deaconess. I am also one of the leaders for our greeters, and I sing in the Mass Choir.  Additionally, I have worked in the prison ministry, the hug and hot soup ministry, and the Healing and Restoration ministry.    Being a part of Love and Faith has blessed me.  Pastor John Goins and Bishop Michael Thomas are doing a great job of leading God's people.  Knowing that people accept me for who I am and still love me regardless,” Jill shares.       Looking ahead, Jill is working on obtaining additional licenses and certifications.  She has also set her sights on working outside of North Carolina and South Carolina.  More than anything, Jill is excited about continuing the work that God has called her to do.  “I want to continue to work to break down the stigmas about therapy and mental health in the black and brown communities.  I am called to be the salt and light of the world.  Being a therapist and aligning my work from a spiritual perspective is why I am here,” Jill says.     Jill Carlton, MS, LCMHC, LPC-SC, NCC www.jillcarltonlcmhc.com   To learn more about Huami Magazine, please visit our website: www.huamimagazine.com Facebook:  Huami_Magazine Instagram: Huami_Magazine

Can Prophets Be Pastored? | Navigating Prophecy and Church Authority in the Charismatic Movement - Ever seen a prophet go rogue, claiming “God told me!” to bypass church leaders? We're exploring the essential question of prophetic submission and healthy church culture.In this episode of Remnant Radio, Josh Lewis, Michael Miller, and Michael Rowntree tackle a pressing question facing many charismatic churches today: Can prophetic people submit to local church leadership? Or more provocatively — what happens when prophets refuse to be pastored?Too often, prophets are seen as untouchable figures who “hear directly from God” and use that perceived authority to bypass or even challenge pastoral leadership. We examine this cultural phenomenon in light of Scripture, offering pastoral insight, biblical parameters, and real-life stories from their own churches and ministries.We explore:* The dangers of prophetic elitism and spiritual manipulation* Biblical models of submission to elders and church order* When prophecy becomes a platform for rebellion* Historic abuses from movements like Montanism* The necessity of protocols, testing, and known character* How churches can cultivate a healthy prophetic culture without quenching the SpiritIf your church operates in the gifts of the Spirit — especially prophecy — this is a must-watch conversation. You'll walk away with practical wisdom on how to encourage the prophetic while protecting your church from division, doctrinal confusion, and cult-like authoritarianism.00:00:00 Intro: Can Prophets Be Pastored?00:03:22 Addressing Prophets Struggling with Church Authority00:16:15 Protocol for Prophetic Ministry00:20:05 Biblical Parameters00:31:49 Mutual Submission & Submission to Church Leadership00:54:20 Conclusion: Spirit and Order in the Local ChurchSubscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

What happens when the institutions we've trusted start to crumble and we realize they were never meant to carry the weight we gave them? Today, I'm joined by Angie Ward. She invites us into a deep reimagining of the Church, not just as a building or an organization, but as a Spirit-formed people living on mission together. Angie has spent decades in both church and parachurch worlds, and she brings hard-won wisdom and clarity to a question many of us are asking right now: what is the Church supposed to be? We talk about the historical split between church and parachurch, what it would look like to move from siloed excellence to shared mission, and why this cultural moment might be the perfect time to rethink everything - not out of panic, but out of trust. We discuss institutional collapse, missional ecosystems, scarcity vs. abundance, and how to step into new paradigms when the old ones stop working. If you're sensing the shaking in the foundations and wondering what's next for the people of God, join us as we imagine an ecosystem of missional extensions. Angie Ward (PhD, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary) is director of the Doctor of Ministry program and associate professor of leadership and ministry at Denver Seminary.

In this powerful and unfiltered conversation, Jackie sits down with Janet Ables, pastor, author, and leadership coach, to expose what it's really like for women serving in male-dominated ministry spaces. From unequal pay and lack of titles to the subtle (and not-so-subtle) messaging that keeps women “one down,” Jackie and Janet share personal stories, theological insights, and hard-earned wisdom.Why does it matter if your church has a woman on staff? Because when women are in leadership, it expands the lens through which Scripture is interpreted, gives voice to half the congregation's lived experiences, and reminds every woman in the pew that she, too, is made in the image of God, with gifts worth using and a calling worth honoring. Whether you're in vocational ministry or simply attend a church, this episode will open your eyes to why women in leadership deeply matter, for all of us.
