Is Christianity Failing Its Own Moral Standards?

Does character even matter anymore for Christians? If you look at the moral failure happening among pastors and the current culture politically, you'd think not. But the truth is your character matters far more than you think, and it's what the next generation is looking for. In this episode, I explore the critical role of character in leadership, especially within Christian ministry. I debunk three dangerous myths about character and competence, emphasizing that character is essential for effective leadership. Plus, I share personal insights and stresses that character impacts relationships, legacy, and overall leadership effectiveness. ✅ GROW YOUR LEADERSHIP WITH RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO: Show Notes http://careynieuwhof.com/episode717 The Art of Leadership Academy https://careynieuwhof.com/the-art-of-...
