In this episode of the 5 Leadership Questions podcast, Todd Adkins and Eric Geiger are joined by not just one guest but two: Kevin Peck, Lead Pastor of The Austin Stone Community Church and Josh Patterson, Lead Pastor over Ministry Leadership at The Village Church. During their conversation, they discuss learning from older leaders, leading well in their homes, and keeping the long journey of leadership in mind.
