On this episode of The Lead On Podcast, Jeff Iorg, president of the SBC Executive Committee, tackles why ministry leadership feels so relentlessly challenging, outlining three key reasons: pervasive sin in the world, followers, and leaders themselves; the inevitable complications of success like more people, needs, and quirky characters; and God's purposeful use of trials for personal sanctification. He encourages embracing these pressures as a divine laboratory for character growth, turning inevitable hardships into opportunities to become more like Jesus Christ.
