In this episode of the Lead On podcast, Jeff Iorg, president of the Southern Baptist Convention's executive committee, discusses the importance of handling difficult conversations in ministry leadership. He emphasizes that such conversations, whether with coworkers, church leaders, family members, or others, require careful consideration of both the immediate issue and the overarching mission of discipleship and gospel sharing. Iorg highlights the need to consider the other person's perspective, including age, emotional and spiritual maturity, cultural background, and experiences. He also stresses the importance of choosing the right setting and timing, engaging in active listening, and avoiding the misuse of scripture. Prayer and the thoughtful use of biblical principles can support these conversations, ensuring they are conducted with integrity and compassion.
