What if I told you that readiness isn’t a prerequisite for leadership? In this episode, I sit down with Luverta Reames, a trusted friend and fellow leader, to explore what it really means to lead from a place of obedience to God. We unpack the hard truths of leadership—why it’s messy, how it tests your motives, and why your relationship with God must be your anchor.

We talk about the importance of obedience over feeling "ready," how to sustain your courage and confidence through prayer and the Word, and why transparency and vulnerability are non-negotiables for building trust. Whether you’re leading a ministry, a business, or your family, this conversation will equip and encourage you to lead well and lead God’s way.

Listen in and discover:

• Why obedience to God, not readiness, is the key to godly leadership

• How to stay motivated and connected to your calling through Bible study and prayer

• The real challenges leaders face (opposition, disappointment, betrayal)

• How transparency and vulnerability build trust in leadership

• Why your motives matter and how to keep them aligned with God's purpose
