In this episode of the 5 Leadership Questions podcast, Todd Adkins is joined by Daniel Im, former 5LQ cohost and senior associate pastor at Beulah Alliance Church, and Kevin Peck, lead pastor at Austin Stone. They discuss the following questions:

* What is your best ministry story so far?* What has realigning your staff looked like?* What are the best practices that have come out of this situation?* What tools and frameworks are you using?* How important is it for church leaders to stay emotionally healthy? How are you doing that?
