Leaders are defined by difficult times and all leaders go through them. On today's episode, we go over leadership battles and how you can be prepared for them.

Have you ever felt tired and didn't want to keep going? Everybody hits that moment where they feel like they can't keep going. Today, I want to give you a template for resilience.

Listen as I walk you through lessons I learned from a friend as he navigated and lead his organization through a crisis.

A few months ago, Pastor Brooks did a message on Keys to Soul Management. This is critical to the success of a minister being able to guard him/herself from the various mine fields that exist in Ministry. Take a listen to part 2 of this message.

It seems like an odd statement to make, Taking Leadership Seriously. However, many leaders overlook the responsibilities and expectations that come with holding a leadership position. Listen a long as I walk you through various principles I have learned during my leadership journey.

Inspired by recent events, Pastor Brooks altered his weekend message to communicate his response to the tragic events that have unfolded throughout our nation. This podcast is the audio from his Sunday sermon titled When Words Aren't Enough. We pray that you listen and if it is of help or benefit please share it with others.

Leaders may often wonder what Jesus might say if he were teaching a leadership lesson. The good news is that he did, in fact, give a leadership lesson as he sent out first the 12 disciples, then 70 more, giving them instructions before they went. In this podcast, Pastor Brooks walks us through Jesus' leadership lesson and showings how full of wisdom and guidance it really was.

Growth is at the core of leadership. If you are not growing, you will not be leading at a high capacity for any length of time. Listen as I discuss the correlation between growth and leadership.

Leading at a high capacity is already difficult, but how does insecurity affect ones ability to lead successfully? Can someone lead and still be highly insecure? Listen to this podcast as I try and answer some of these questions.

I was recently asked a question that was intriguing. The question dealt with leadership teaching moments and how do I know if leadership took place or not. Listen to this podcast to hear how I addressed that question.

Crisis is the climate in which leaders have to prevail. Pastor Brooks walks you through various principles on how to not only manage but be a more effective leaders when these moments happen.

Pastor Brooks walks us through the many failures of one of the greatest leaders of the Bible - Moses. Although he is listed in the famous Hebrews 11 "Faith Hall of Fame," we are given countless instances of Moses' failures, fears, and shortcomings as a leader. Pastor Brooks shows us how Moses' stumbling blocks can be our stepping stones to a better, stronger leadership.

Pastor Brooks breaks down unique and under-addressed challenges church leadership faces when it comes to young leaders vs. old leaders, and helps bridge the gap between the inexperienced yet eager upcoming generation of leaders and the battle-worn veterans of ministry.

Recently, I sat down with some of our young leaders on staff and encouraged them to ask me questions. After that meeting I was inspired to write this message that deals with 7 questions that will make or break you in various leadership cultures and environments.
