179 | [Guest] Choosing the Opposite: Leading Like Jesus in a Divided World with Tammy Melchien

In a world marked by division, pressure, and constant noise, how can Christian leaders lead differently?

In this episode, I'm joined by teaching pastor and author Tammy Melchien to discuss her book Choosing the Opposite and the powerful lessons found in Jesus' Sermon on the Mount.

Together, we explore what it means to lead with humility, live for God's approval rather than people's praise, and embrace the radically different way of Jesus.

In This Episode We discuss:

• how the challenges of recent years led Tammy back to the Sermon on the Mount

• why Jesus' teachings are just as relevant today as they were 2,000 years ago

• why leadership is relational, not positional

• the beauty and strength of collaborative leadership

• what it means to live for an "audience of One"

• how seeking people's approval creates emotional exhaustion

• the connection between leadership, identity, and burnout

• why healthy leaders create margin and trust God with their calling
