When to Hold On and When to Let Go as a Leader | With Jim Burgen

In this episode, two seasoned pastors open up about the realities of leadership. From carrying pressure and chasing growth to learning collaboration, building teams, and creating margin, they share how their philosophy of leadership has evolved over time.

They also talk about succession, raising up the next generation, avoiding burnout, and the delicate balance between staying in your lane and letting others lead. They unpack hard-earned lessons about control, identity, and why rescuing people can sometimes do more harm than good.

If you’re leading anything, whether it’s ministry, a team, or a family, this conversation will challenge how you think about success, influence, and long-term impact.
