What if the "more" you're sensing isn't ego ... it's obedience? Phil Kniesel, lead pastor of Hope City Church in Edmonton, shares how God broke his heart for his city, why he set a 1% vision, and how to lead with both audacity and wisdom. From launching prayer nights that grew from 125 to over 1,100 to creating financial buffers that preserved his staff during crisis, Phil shows a path any leader can walk: be all in with what's in your hand, ask God for favor, and keep solving the next problem with courage and compassion.
Guest: Phil Kniesel. Theme: calling, bold vision, prayer, stewardship, leadership resilience.
You'll learn:
How to discern the difference between ambition and assignment and why asking God for success and favour isn't pride.
A practical model for citywide impact: long-horizon goals supported by consistent corporate prayer.
How to pair big dreams with prudent systems like building financial margin so people keep their jobs.
Why leadership gets lonelier as you grow and the relationships that keep you healthy.
The portable rule for momentum: be faithful with your next step.
