4 weeks ago9:32

9:32

The Bible has a lot to say about staying alert and keeping watch. If we aren't vigilant as leaders, the churches and organizations we're responsible for are often left in disarray and vulnerable to attack and vision creep.

TRLP 044: Discover the Power of Repetition and Why The Right Habits Matter So Much 7:59

Too many of us are so addicted to the rush of something new that we've accepted that anything that gets repeated has to become boring or stale. But repetition is only a bad thing when we're repeating bad things! I repeat: repetition is only a... You get the idea. So let's change the narrative, and get busy repeating what needs to be repeated.

TRLP 043: How to Do Hard Things, Recover, and then Do More Hard Things 6:35

8 weeks ago6:35

6:35

I've always been motivated by JFK's "we do them because they are hard" speech, and clearly, so was our country because we did get to the moon (regardless of what conspiracy theorists might think). But what happens after we've done hard things and we need time to rest and recover? Maybe more importantly, how do we find the strength to get back up and do another hard thing? In this episode, Paul reminds us that while we may need to step back from time to time, we were never made to shrink back from hard things. ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ Thanks for listening to The Reluctant Leader Podcast with Paul Jenkins !

TRLP 040: What Do You Do When God Seems to Ignore Your Prayers? 9:12

37 weeks ago9:12

9:12

Does God ever seem distant when you ask him about things that really matter to you? Of course, he does. But the good news is that you aren't alone! Anyone who has ever spent any amount of time in prayer has felt that way, and often, the more desperate we are, the longer he seems to take. In this episode, Paul walks us through Luke 18 and shows us what to do when we face the unopened door of unanswered prayer. ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ Thanks for listening to The Reluctant Leader Podcast with Paul Jenkins !

As we wrap up our "Restored to Health" miniseries in Psalm 126, the psalmist reminds us that even after we've been restored, there is work to be done. Even more importantly, he reminds us that the work often still feels like work, and yet he holds out the very real hope that when the sowing brings us pain, the reaping will bring us bounty. ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ Thanks for listening to The Reluctant Leader Podcast with Paul Jenkins !

TRLP 038: Let's Talk About Taking Two Steps Forward, Three Steps Back, and Why Sometimes That Might be Normal 8:18

50 weeks ago8:18

8:18

We've all been there. We've gone public about something amazing that God has done in our lives, churches, businesses, or ministries only to wake up the next day and find ourselves wondering if it really happened? In this episode, we can take comfort in the fact that the people of God also lived in the "now and not yet" places we find ourselves. Yes, God had brought back the captives (Psalm 126:1), and yet in Psalm 126:4 they asked Him to do it again. Or did they?

TRLP 037: Let's Talk About a Four Letter Word with the Power to Get Us Through the Process 7:06

1 year ago7:06

7:06

Sometimes the process of being restored to joy is just that ... a process. That process can be daunting and overwhelming if we think it's about being the perfect leader or the perfect person, but when we accept as fact that the Lord has restored us to health, then the process can become a celebration of all that the Lord has done to this point. No more hiding or pretending. No more masks or fake smiles. "Here I raise my Ebeneezer" because thus far, to this point in the process, the Lord has been my help. And that means, He'll continue to be from this point forward, too. ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ Thanks for listening to The Reluctant Leader Podcast with Paul Jenkins !

As we continue our miniseries in Psalm 126, let's talk about the things that mark us when we're living lives that have been restored to health: joy, song, laughter, and the global influence that comes with a life of integrity. Will we always feel like we're living up to that list? Of course not. But as we'll see in this episode, that doesn't mean that it isn't still true. Join us as we continue our journey toward restored spiritual and emotional health, and as we learn the power of proclaiming what we remember about God's goodness.

TRLP 034 - Let's Talk About How to Live Beyond Regret and How to Stay Out of Hell 12:18

1 year ago12:18

12:18

Is hell "down there?" If it is, then why do we often talk about "hell on earth?" Why does the regret we experience at night as we replay the day feel so much like hell already, and how can we learn to live beyond it? Is peace even possible, or are we destined to stay stuck in a Groundhog Day of bad decisions and painful regret? In this episode, Paul shares some interesting insights into what hell might be and sheds some light on how God's goodness in this life gives us time to prepare for the next.

What's the biggest difference between Tiger Woods and me when it comes to playing golf? Well, we both hit bad shots from time to time (I hit a lot more of them), but we don't recover from them the same. In this episode, let's talk about how important it is for us to be healthy enough as leaders that we can recover from the bad shots, and help the people we lead find their way back to joy after hard seasons.
