This week on Nuts and Bolts of Leadership, Billy sits down with Chase Alford, Lead Pastor of Teaching at Dayspring Baptist Church, and Austin Lovette, Teaching Pastor at Wilmer Baptist Church, to unpack the unique dynamics of leadership in ministry. They talk about balancing the practical aspects of running a church while staying rooted in its spiritual mission.
The conversation dives into the challenges and rewards of mentorship, the value of leaning on seasoned leaders, and the power of leading from your individual strengths—whether it’s teaching, guiding, or inspiring through action. Chase and Austin share why having a plurality of leadership helps prevent burnout and fosters a supportive, collaborative team. They also offer practical advice on managing time wisely, breaking down complex theological ideas into relatable messages, and maintaining authenticity in communication.
