In this episode, S2E9, we tackle the challenges faced by church leaders amidst contemporary philosophical pressures. We address the fine line between caring for people and people-pleasing, along with the necessity of standing firm in one's convictions. The significance of knowing core principles and avoiding fruitless disputes is also examined. We highlight the importance of balancing love with firmly held beliefs in the face of societal influences. Finally, we preview the rich themes upcoming in our discussions on Colossians.
