Come sit down with my friend Nathan Escamilla as we walk through Ruth Haley Barton's book Strengthening the Soul of Your Leadership. Leaders need to practice the spiritual disciplines of silence and solitude in order to lead out of their relationship with Jesus. Nathan and I share some of the challenges and major insights we received from her book.

Welcome to the to Learn Love Lead Podcast, this episode is all about the life and legacy of Lot, Abraham's little nephew. He had a difficult life and ended several traumatic events. He does not have the best reputation in scripture and his descendants were bitter rivals of Israel. But even in difficult situations, God can still move in our lives. I hope you are encouraged and challenged in this episode.

 In this episode, I share what a friend of mine refers to as the Theology of Recreation and elaborate on ways we can incorporate recreation into our personal lives and leadership. I love to have fun! I believe God designed us to have fun and engage in activities which bring us joy and energize us. Through recreation individually, one-on-one, small groups, and organizationally, we can grow closer to God and build community with each other.

Dr. David Cook is one of my former professors at Dallas Baptist University from the Cook School of Leadership. Our conversation focused on the topic of post traumatic growth.

He provides some practical ways to help others grow through crisis as well. Click the following link, if you want to know more about DBU's Masters of Arts of Leadership.
