Inviting the Holy Spirit In Leadership | Dr. John Roddam
In this episode of the Healthy Christian Leader Show, host Dwight Habermehl speaks with Dr. John Roddam, an Anglican priest and leader passionate about renewal and revival. Dr. Rodham shares his journey of discovering a deeper relationship with God and the Holy Spirit, beginning in his first parish in Windsor, Nova Scotia. Through challenges, failures, and mentorship, he learned to embrace God’s presence in church leadership, moving beyond structured worship to create space for the Holy Spirit.
He reflects on how encountering God’s presence transformed both his leadership and his personal health, and emphasizes the importance of leaders developing a personal relationship with Jesus. Dr. Rodham also highlights the role of silence and listening prayer in fostering an environment where God can move, allowing leaders to lead from a place of deep encounter with Christ.
The conversation also touches on the impact of the Welsh Revival and the importance of allowing God to lead in ministry, rather than relying on human control. He encourages leaders to embrace a spirit-led approach to their work, empowering churches and communities to experience genuine transformation.
