In this episode, I have a powerful conversation with Sue Tell, veteran leader with the Navigators, as we dive into the internal struggles we face within churches and Christian organizations. In this episode, Sue opens up about her battle with shame and comparison, and how these feelings impacted her ministry.
Alongside her husband, Bill, Sue reached a breaking point where performance couldn't sustain them. It was then that they encountered God's transformative love and grace. Tune in to hear Sue's inspiring journey and how embracing God's acceptance changed everything.
