Why Biblical Leadership for Women in Ministry
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we're returning to Scripture to discover Jesus' definition of leadership. Together, we'll explore why biblical leadership is different and why it matters for women serving in ministry.
This episode also marks a new chapter for The Upstream Pursuit. While our heart remains the same, we'll be more intentional about helping women serving in ministry grow in Christ-like character, leadership skills and ministry rhythms.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- Why leadership must be defined by Scripture, not culture.
- What Jesus teaches about greatness in Matthew 20.
- How to begin stewarding the responsibilities God has entrusted to you with humility, wisdom, and confidence.
Whether you have a ministry title or faithfully serve behind the scenes, this episode is an invitation to let Christ shape the way you lead.
Scripture: Matthew 20:20–28
