Leaders should take less money, not more, than the people they serve.
Have you ever wondered how money influences leadership in ministry? In this episode of 'The Sober Truth', George Wood sits down with Brian Sanders, the former Executive Director of The Underground Network, to tackle this very question. Sanders brings his unique perspective as an author and social entrepreneur to discuss the tricky balance between humility and pride in leadership roles.
He argues that leaders should earn less than those they serve to avoid the pitfalls of pride and maintain genuine humility. But that's just the beginning. They also delve into the concept of microchurches and how customized ministry can better serve diverse communities. Sanders shares personal anecdotes about his journey, offering a candid look at what he might have done differently and the lessons he's learned along the way.
He emphasizes the importance of having a 'rule of life'—a set of guiding principles to stay grounded, especially during tough times. This episode is packed with insights on personal growth, self-awareness, and the ever-important balance between faith and practical leadership. If you're looking for thought-provoking discussions that blend faith with real-world challenges, this episode is a must-listen.
