On today’s AVAIL podcast episode, our guest, Renée Hill Carter, imparts words of wisdom on the epidemic of leaders' emotional self-neglect, the masquerade of resilience, and the disregard of emotional symptoms. Leaders: suspend the notion that you can’t afford rest—you can’t afford not to.

In this episode, Dave Gibbons calls all leaders to be the confluence at the junction of cultural and church polarization by living in one accord with God. We learn the key to innovation is not to keep our eyes on the prize, but on God’s image bearers.

In this episode, we learn from Brent McCorkle, the director of the upcoming film Jesus Revolution, about how failure is not optional for exceptional leadership (but essential), how life’s storms fertilize the terrain of a leader’s heart to shepherd the hearts of those being led, and how your art is only as good as the love you lay bare to others.

In this episode, we claim victory over the weapons formed against us with Adam F. Jones. Adam’s new book, Weapons of Mass Deception, arms us to deny access to enemy assaults, come out from hiding and mend our fractured identities, and repair the damage done to our fissured hearts. The enemy will crack your vessel, but with a fierce counterattack, it doesn’t have to leak.
