In this episode, Bishop Geoffrey Dudley shares what it takes to lead through the storms of life and ministry. Drawing from his experiences in both the military and the church, he talks about calling, resilience, and the connection between leadership and mental health. This conversation explores what authentic leadership looks like when you’re navigating real challenges, for example, crafting vision, managing the movement, and building teams that can bend without breaking.

Takeaways

Episode field note: Get to know you

“Set aside time for self-reflection and get to know you.

He already knows you. He fearfully and wonderfully made you. But when you begin to know you, that’s when He can really start working with you.”

Before you can lead others, you have to sit with your own story. Like Jacob, we wrestle with identity, with the question God still asks: Who are you?
