Leadership Isn’t About Being Right. It’s About Owning It.

Leadership Isn’t Being Perfect. It’s Owning the Mess.In one of the most raw and repentant moments of his ministry, Pastor Jim Burgen confronts his own leadership failure and the silence that followed a week of national tragedy and personal loss. What follows is part confession, part challenge, and part rally cry—not just to Flatirons Church, but to every man wondering how to lead in a world on fire. Jim doesn’t pull punches: from owning his mistakes to declaring truth in a chaotic culture, this is the moment where courage meets clarity.This isn’t about politics. It’s about obedience. Jim speaks candidly on the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the school shooting in Evergreen, calling the Church to wake up—not with rage, but with righteousness. This is about standing firm on the Word of God, even when the world calls you crazy. You’ll hear what it means to lead with conviction, love people enough to tell the truth, and follow Jesus even when it costs everything.
