How to Develop a Leader | Dr. Jeff Bucknam

Ever had someone tell you something you didn’t want to hear but absolutely needed to? I’ll never forget Kyle pulling me aside and saying, ‘Your breath is awful.’ Not what I wanted to hear—but I’m thankful he cared enough to say it. It’s that kind of truth in love that makes us better. It certainly made me better.

In Acts 18, we meet Apollos—a gifted, passionate, powerful teacher who still needed some help. Thankfully, he got it—from friends who saw potential and stepped in with grace. Why should we care about this? Because the future of the church depends on the leaders we’re shaping today.

So in this episode, we’re asking: What does it take to develop healthy, impactful Christian leaders? Here are three things we’ll explore:

1. Developing leaders is a necessary work—because the mission goes on even when we’re gone.

2. Developing leaders is a delicate work—because correction must be done with care.

3. Developing leaders is a profitable work—because the investment pays off for generations.

Let’s jump in.
