Bible Leadership Podcast [BLP]
Too often, Christian leaders adopt leadership principles the world applauds and import them straight into the church—without stopping to ask to what degree they align with Scripture. Over time, that disconnects leadership from the truth of God’s Word. The Bible Leadership Podcast exists to reverse that flow. We start with leadership principles drawn from the Bible and apply them to real life—church, work, and everything in between. Our mission is simple: connect your Bible to your leadership, and your leadership back to your Bible.
