  • The WallBuilders Show - How To Lead With Grace When You Are Under Attack - with Rob McCoy

    When your name gets dragged, your motives get questioned, and the loudest voices seem determined to misrepresent you, what does faithful leadership actually look like? Tim Barton sits down with Pastor Rob McCoy for a candid, wide-ranging finale that starts with spiritual resilience and ends with a challenge to both younger and older generations to lead with courage. We talk about how to absorb criticism without becoming cynical, how to keep a clean heart when you feel justified in being angry, and why the Beatitudes still offer a practical framework for life in the public square. 

    From there, we zoom out to history and the cost of conviction. Rob reflects on lessons from figures like Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Martin Niemoller, then connects those ideas to modern moments when pastors had to decide whether government orders crossed constitutional and biblical lines. We also tackle the Romans 13 debate, religious liberty, and why standing for neighbors sometimes means refusing to call tyranny “obedience.” Along the way, we come back to one of the most important leadership ideas we can practice right now: people are not the enemy; they are the opportunity, even when they are wrong. 

    Finally, Rob explains the vision behind the American Pastors Guild, a pastor-focused network designed to equip church leaders with serious training, strong relationships, and clear standards, without the usual ministry pitching and platform building. If you care about biblical leadership, church engagement in culture, constitutional principles, and raising up the next generation with moral clarity, you will get a lot from this conversation. Subscribe, share this with a friend or your pastor, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway.
