What does it really mean to lead as a Christian? In this powerful episode, Jeremy Stalnecker sits down with Dr. James Spencer, author, theologian, and podcaster, to unpack discipleship, leadership, and how to live under the authority of Christ in today’s upside-down culture. From redefining discipleship beyond programs and mentorship, to understanding leadership as guiding people from where they are to where God wants them to be, this conversation equips you with biblical clarity to stand firm, lead well, and think Christian in every area of life.
