Let’s be honest—some leaders lead from position, not passion. They rely on titles, not trust. But the greatest leaders? They win people’s hearts before they ever ask for their hands. In this month’s podcast, I’m talking about what I’ve learned to connect your heart with your staff and your people — not through control, but through compassion.

Shepherds or Snipers
Since the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk last month, pastors across America have been turning their spiritual guns on one another . . . condemning and criticizing how others responded to his death. Some have even gone so far as to call pastors cowards, question their calling, and pressure people to leave their churches.But here’s the truth: when pastors preach their personal convictions as though they were Bible absolutes, they cross a line. It doesn’t build the church — it sows division, condemnation, and pride in the Body of Christ.This month on the podcast, Dean addresses the issue head on and brings balanced truth from God’s Word to remind us as shepherds: “My convictions guide me. Bible absolutes ground me. But love must govern me.”
