Message by Larry Osborne on May 30, 2026. This weekend we come to the story of the rich young ruler, and we'll see that it's not really a teaching about money at all. It's about what happens when a blessing becomes the thing we trust more than God — and why surrender, not achievement, is the only way into the Kingdom of Heaven.

Message by Larry Osborne on May 16, 2026. What does Jesus actually mean when He tells us to forgive?

In this episode, Alan Briggs sits down with Holly Tate, founder of The Ready Network and a consultant who has spent 15 years serving churches, ministries, and organizations at the intersection of leadership development and strategic clarity. Holly brings a rare vantage point: nearly a decade at Vanderbloemen doing executive search for churches, four years as Chief Marketing and Services Officer at a leadership software company serving over 600 ministries, and now running her own coaching and consulting practice helping leaders and teams scale. The conversation covers a lot of ground and moves fast. From the moment organizations outgrow their basketball team culture and have to become a football team, to the trends Holly is watching unfold in real time around shared leadership models, AI adoption, spiritual formation, and what it means to actually be ready for what's coming next. If you lead a church, serve on an elder board, work as an executive pastor, or simply want to understand the challenges facing ministry leaders right now, this one is for you. And if you lead a business or nonprofit, Holly estimates about 70% of this conversation will translate directly. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Holly's 15-year leadership pathway — from cold calling at a radio company to executive search at Vanderbloemen to chief marketing officer at a leadership software company — and what all of it taught her about organizational health The doer to developer jump — why top performers get promoted into management roles they were never equipped for, and the tension that creates between executives and managers The basketball team to football team analogy from Larry Osborne's Sticky Teams — what breaks down when organizations cross that threshold and what leaders have to change about themselves to navigate it The READY framework — Reality check, Evaluation, Action plan, Delegation, Yes barometer — and how Holly uses it as a 90-day strategic planning process for churches and organizations Why the Yes barometer is the hardest part of the framework to implement — and why psychological safety determines whether it works The emerging trend of shared and co-leadership models in churches — Holly's two hypotheses for why it's happening and what's making it work What's really driving fear around AI in church culture — and why Holly believes leaders should be the first to explore it, not the last The discipleship disruption — why churches are rethinking spiritual formation from the ground up and what that means for buildings, campuses, and Sunday morning models What men on leadership teams are accidentally doing that excludes female colleagues — and the simple habit shift that changes it What Holly is obsessed with right now: the concept of readiness and what it means to be a truly ready leader in a world changing faster than ever Reflection Questions: Is your organization still running basketball team systems inside a football team reality — and what would it cost you to acknowledge that honestly? Where does your team need a Yes barometer — a shared language for what you're saying no to when you say yes to something new? As a leader, are you approaching AI and rapid change with anticipation or dread — and what would it look like to move toward curiosity instead?

Message by Larry Osborne on April 25, 2026. What happens when the “spiritual recipe” that worked before… doesn't work anymore? This weekend, we'll take a look at a moment in Matthew 17 where the disciples run into that exact problem, and it forces a bigger question: have we started trusting a formula instead of trusting God?

Message by Larry Osborne on March 28, 2026. The biggest enemies of Jesus weren't outsiders, they were the most religious people in the room.
