Culture isn’t a side issue. It’s the issue. This episode unpacsk why culture beats strategy every time. Amazing cultures don't happen by accident. And it didn’t happen because of talent. They are intentionally built and fiercely guarded. We’ll talk language that shapes behavior, leadership that multiplies conviction, and why what you tolerate today becomes who you are tomorrow. If you lead a church, a team, or a ministry—and you feel stuck—this episode will challenge the way you think about growth, leadership, and what actually moves the needle.
