In this episode of The Healthy Christian Leader, host Dwight Habermel sits down with Dave Witt, leader of True City, for a thoughtful conversation on healthy leadership within citywide initiatives.

Dave shares insights from his experience serving pastors and churches across Hamilton, exploring what it takes to remain grounded, energized, and spiritually healthy while carrying both local church and city-level responsibilities. Together, they discuss the importance of trusted friendships, intercessory prayer, spiritual direction, and intentional rhythms of rest—especially quarterly retreats—to sustain clarity and joy in leadership.

The conversation also touches on setting healthy limits, navigating seasonal demands, building trust across networks, and leaning into God’s grace amid pressure and uncertainty. This episode offers practical wisdom and encouragement for leaders seeking long-term faithfulness and impact in their cities.

Part one of a two-part conversation—be sure to join us for the next episode as the discussion on leader health continues.
