Leadership Podcast

with Pastor John Nuzzo

November 2019

In this episode, Pastor Nuzzo interviews Pastors Walker and Haley Schurz who followed a God-sized vision of raising up a church in the developing city of Lusaka, Zambia, using funds raised from within that nation. They have been successfully following that vision and pastoring a church there for 16 years, creating a model which is influencing their community and government leaders, but not without facing many obstacles and challenges.

In this discussion, Haley realized that through enormous challenges we face, some of our character flaws are often revealed, thus providing opportunities for growth in our leadership capacity. When our internal deficits are revealed under pressure, we would be wise to seek counsel through God and safe mentors. When we can be honest and transparent with ourselves and others, not hiding our flaws, God’s grace can raise us to become healthier individuals with a greater capacity for leadership.

Walker goes on to tell of their standing amid enormous pressures and trials while building the church, not giving way to their feelings when it appeared time and time again that the vision had died, but rather embracing the call of God and continuing steadfast.

Listen in on this encouraging podcast to be inspired to overcome whatever roadblocks you face in your leadership.
