Leading by the Spirit, Part 2

February 21, 2025

What is leadership that we are all to have? A pastor, Julian is offered the opportunity to oversee the development of a School of Leadership. Jenna is offered to start a preschool at their church. She begins the difficult job of starting a business from scratch while raising their four young children.

In this episode:

My mom said, “Just surrender and God will show up.” – Jenna

I started down this long journey of starting a business from scratch. – Jenna

They have their own agenda and they are not going to do exactly what you want them to do. I want to follow his lead and God’s lead and not to give up. – Jenna

My life is all about surrender. When I surrender is when God has freedom to do what He wants to do in my life. – Jenna

God shouts the “nos”, but he whispers “go”. If I tend to ignore the no and push that away, then I can ignore the go. – Julian

Not having children in the first 5 years, God had a different plan. I had to let that go. – Jenna

God, I’m yours and whatever you want me to do, I’ll do it. – Julian

Leadership is serving at all costs and putting others before yourself. That is what true leadership is. Leadership is setting the example for someone to see Christ in you. – Julian

Sometimes the hardest thing to lead is not an organization, or a process, or a system, it’s me. – Julian

The season you are in now will not be the season you are in tomorrow. – Julian

My advice to parents would be, pray more than you talk. – Julian

If you are not close it is really hard to hear him. – Jenna

“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly.” – Colossians 3:16
