A storm only looks like weather until it hits your team. We explore how one intense night in John 13–17 becomes a field guide for modern leadership under pressure: power that kneels, pruning that strengthens, and unity that endures. We start with the moment Jesus washes feet—a vivid picture of authority expressed through service—and translate it into daily practices leaders can use to build trust and influence. Expect concrete takeaways on modeling behaviors you want multiplied, designing roles that protect focus, and creating space where the best work can ripen.

Then we unpack the vine and branches: why pruning isn’t about loss, but about fruit. If you’ve wrestled with tough staffing calls, unclear responsibilities, or the chaos of “helpful” people working outside their lane, this conversation offers a humane framework. We share practical tools like 90‑day focus plans, boundary setting, and the “right seat” mindset, plus the hard truth that delayed decisions drain cultures. You’ll hear why hiring for attitude outperforms hiring for pedigree, and how “unity with candor” beats nice, vague teamwork every time.

We also address common questions about communion practices and how tradition can be reframed to renew purpose. Whether you fast before receiving or not, the point is remembrance that reshapes behavior—an idea leaders can apply by pairing rituals with reflection across their teams. We close with an invitation to find a church home and a circle that knows you, challenges you, and sends you. Storms will come. Strong roots—servant leadership, clear lanes, honest pruning, and real community—help you stand and bear fruit.
