QUOTES FROM EPISODE 24: “We achieve inner peace when our schedule is aligned with our values.” “Leading from holiness also means leading from wholeness as a person.” “Young leaders should be incredibly wary of ideals, stereotypes, and formulas. We should rebel against the American gospel of upward mobility.” “We find God’s will for our life in our limitations.” “The more leadership you have, the larger the target for spiritual oppression is on your back.” “Pay less attention to idols, images, and aspiring to success, and pay more attention to inner work and who Jesus is calling you to become.” “If the enemy can’t underpromote you, he’ll overpromote you faster than your rhythms of grace can sustain.” “If you are working more than 40 hours a week, you are not doing your job well.” RESOURCES MENTIONED The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry by John Mark Comer Habitudes by Dr. Tim Elmore Atomic Habits by James Clear Domestic Monastery by Ronald Rolheiser
