How you see your world determines the actions you take and the results you create—what lens are you using to view your leadership? In this week's episode, John Maxwell unpacks how your perspective shapes your impact, and reveals four keys to developing a leadership lens that drives lasting effectiveness.
After John's lesson, Mark Cole and Chris Robinson dive deep into practical ways you can shift your perspective and model impactful leadership behaviors in your daily life.
Key takeaways:
The most important voice you listen to is your own—guard your self-talk and ensure it builds you up rather than tears you down.
Realistic perspective is essential at every stage of success; leaders must walk slowly through the crowd, listen, and learn to stay grounded.
It's not enough to do what's best for yourself—great leadership means aligning actions with good values so everyone wins.
Our BONUS resource for this episode is the The Leadership Lens: How You View Things is How You Do Things Worksheet, which includes fill-in-the-blank notes from John's teaching. You can download the worksheet by visiting Maxw

How could Lot be righteous after what he did with his daughters? My friends say God never changes, so we should still be scared of Him like they were in the Old Testament? Why do so many people resist the message of God's grace?

Feeling hidden, overlooked, or stuck in a chaotic season? We walk through David’s creative journey to show how God forms artists from the inside out—long before the spotlight, long after the first breakthrough. This isn’t a pep talk about hustle; it’s a field-tested map for moving from chaos to calling with clarity and courage.
We start where most creators stumble: misreading obscurity as failure. Using David’s early years in the field, we unpack how communion with God grounds identity and becomes the wellspring of revelation. That revelation reframes what you see and how you act—why David saw more than a giant and why your own creative battles require an inner yes before public action. From there, we explore incarnation—the moment vision takes form through skill, excellence, and faithful risk—and why your sling on the battlefield is forged in secret, not on stage.
Resistance shows up next, both outside and within. We name the patterns: jealousy, delay, closed doors, fear, old narratives, and unhealed wounds. Through David’s failures and repentance, we show how cooperation with the Holy Spirit turns pressure into formation, not collapse. Then we scale the story: how private worship became a culture of day and night praise in the tabernacle of David, and what that means for modern artists who want their work to carry presence, not just polish. Throughout, you’ll get a practical rhythm to identify your current season, align your heart, and move forward without forcing the timeline.
If you’re ready to trade panic for process and talent for true formation, this conversation will meet you where you are—cave, battlefield, or throne room—and point you toward lasting impact. Subscribe, share with a creative friend, and leave a review with the season you’re in right now. Your yes today can become someone else’s breakthrough tomorrow.

Most of us assume angels rank above humans in the great cosmic hierarchy. But angels, for all their mystery and power, lack two essential parts of what it means to be human: a physical body and the kind of covenant relationship with God that shapes our story. Kaitlyn takes up the simple question of whether angels are boys or girls and uses it to draw out the deeper differences between angels and humans and how these differences point us back to the astonishing claim at the heart of Scripture: that embodied, relational humanity holds a uniquely honored place in God's creation.
