In this episode of Life & Leadership with Kevin Gerald, we are tackling one of the biggest traps leaders face: “The Myth of Doing It Alone.” Have you ever caught yourself thinking, “It’s easier if I do it myself,” or “If I want it done right, I have to be the one doing it”? These thoughts can keep you stuck doing instead of leading. Through the story of Moses in Exodus 18, Kevin unpacks how carrying the weight alone limits growth and how learning to build teams unlocks greater impact—for your church, your home, and your business. If you want to win big, it takes a team.

What makes a good team great? Today we’re talking about teaming—the art of working together to achieve a common goal. Talent alone isn’t enough; the best teams are built on three essential traits: trust, selflessness, and alignment.

Whether in your workplace, family, church, or community, these principles can help individuals work together as a team. If you’re ready to grow as a leader, strengthen your team, and discover what it takes to win together, this episode is for you.

Together, they explore the importance of faith-driven leadership, the challenges believers face in today's political landscape, and practical ways to influence society while staying true to Biblical principles. Tune in for inspiring insights, real-life stories, and actionable advice that will empower you to be a fearless advocate for your faith in every aspect of life.

In this message from Team Church Conference, Pastor Kevin sits down with Charlotte Gambill to talk about leadership challenges. 

Here at Team Church, we talk about culture often. Now more than ever before, being a culture carrier matters. Culture is either created by design or by default. 

Here are some questions we will discuss in this episode today:

• What is different about the culture conversation now? 
• What does it look like for a leader to be a culture carrier?
• What areas of your team have slipped that need to be evaluated? 

We encourage you to continue the conversation and discuss these questions even further with your teams!

Team Church Code

We've started an important conversation that represents some new language for church leaders today. On the last episode, we talked about how leadership rises and falls on three distinctives. These three things are leadership essentials you'll never get away from. Everything will fit under these three areas when it comes to being an effective leader. 

In this episode, we're going to focus on Core Competence. These are the fundamental skills and practices of a great leadership team. Let's dive into these areas and discover how we can improve both individually and collectively as a team.

In this team church episode, we’re going to talk about what we refer to as the three leadership distinctives. Everyone's leadership capacity will rise and fall on these three things: Character, Core Competency, and Culture. If we can talk about these core issues and get these things right, we will see stronger leaders, stronger teams, and ultimately stronger churches. 

Questions to ask yourself: 
What are some character issues that you can work on in yourself? 
What are some core competencies that are alive in your team and in yourself? 
What is some of the culture by design that is working? What are some that need to be addressed? 

We’re leading and building churches in a season where it seems like no one wants to work. It's a season that’s now well known as “The Great Resignation”.  When people have negative ideas or attitudes about work, their life tends to be more difficult, less enjoyable, and they have fewer opportunities. But when people embrace work with a positive attitude their life tends to be more full, more enjoyable, and they will have greater opportunities for God to bless them, promote them and prosper them. Let's learn how to lead healthy teams that serve the greatest mission on the planet. 

Today's conversation is bold and challenging. This is a topic that must be addressed by Kingdom leaders. There is a difference in the world's approach and the church's approach to the topic of skin color and ethnicity. There is truth and wisdom when we take a Biblical view on this subject. Join Pastor Kevin as he sits down with Pastor Lonnie Keene to discuss Kingdom + Race on this month's podcast episode.
