More Than the Pulpit: Faith, Pressure & Purpose with Pastor Dame
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Leadership is often celebrated. The pressure behind it rarely is.
In this powerful episode of What’s Next? With The Chief Librarian, Tiffany Alston sits down with Pastor Dame of Walk By Faith Ministries for an honest conversation about faith, leadership, purpose, community, and the emotional weight that comes with serving others.
Together, they explore what it means to lead while carrying personal challenges, how faith shows up in real life beyond Sunday mornings, and the importance of remaining grounded when people are constantly looking to you for guidance, support, and answers.
This conversation goes beyond ministry and speaks to anyone who has ever felt the responsibility of being the strong one.
In this episode, we discuss:
- The emotional weight of leadership
- Faith in real life
- Leading while hurting
- Avoiding burnout and protecting your peace
- Community, culture, and authentic faith
- What happens when leaders need support, too
- What’s next for Pastor Dame
One question sits at the heart of this conversation:
“Who pours into the people everyone else depends on?”
Whether you’re a leader, entrepreneur, educator, parent, pastor, manager, or simply navigating a season of responsibility, this episode will challenge, encourage, and remind you that leadership is more than a title—it’s a calling that requires faith, purpose, and resilience.
