Raising Emerging Leaders (In Conversation With John Risbridger)

In this episode, we sit down with John Risbridger to explore what it means to raise and develop emerging leaders in today’s church. John shares openly about the ongoing call to keep growing as a leader, resisting the temptation to coast, managing energy as we get older, and staying curious, learning, and discovering. Together they discuss the quiet revival happening, and why more people are beginning to see the Christian faith as a credible option. The conversation also covers blind spots in churches, navigating challenging cultural conversations such as immigration, and capturing God’s heart for the nations. John reflects on his passion for training leaders, the many different paths people take into ministry, and how churches can cultivate environments where people grow without falling into unhealthy patterns of power or control.
