Welcome to Episode 28 of the Grow Your Ministry Podcast with Damean Easter.

In this episode, Damean talks about one of the most familiar tensions in ministry — balancing what’s important with what feels urgent. Every week brings responsibilities, unexpected problems, relationships to nurture, and vision to lead. And while the urgent moments aren’t going away, they don’t have to derail your entire week. Damean walks through a simple, repeatable way to plan your week around four key areas so you can stay focused, lead well, and still leave room for the surprises ministry always brings.
