What if the missing link in your leadership isn’t a new strategy but a deeper way of being? We open up the connection between differentiation and discernment, showing how identity, humility, and the Spirit’s guidance shape leaders who can face pressure without losing soul or mission. Rather than treating them as competing ideas, we weave them together as one spiritual practice grounded in Scripture and tested in real church life.
We start with differentiation as Jesus and Paul lived it: knowing who you are. Then we pivot to discernment—not as a decision hack, but as a communal pursuit of wisdom from above. We explore how elder teams and congregations can pray, debate , and listen together until they can say, “It seemed good to the Spirit and to us.”
If you’re a pastor, elder, or lay leader longing for Spirit-led clarity without the noise, this conversation offers a path forward—biblically rooted, relationally honest, and designed for real churches. Subscribe, share with your team, and leave a review with one practice your church uses to listen for God together.
