Podcast Summary:
In this 10-minute podcast, Tom Mohr shares the story of Elyse Vandersteen. With Elyse's permission and encouragement, Tom shares some of the most difficult struggles of her young life-- and how she has risen above them. Elyse's story teaches us that each of us brings to our call both gifts and gaps. But our gaps are, in a certain sense, gifts as well. Because they remind us of our humanity, and keep us humble as we interact with the other imperfect human beings all around us.
Song Summary:
This week’s podcast-featured song is “You Are Mine (God’s Lullaby)”. Mohr wrote this song as a lullaby-- sung by God, just to you. It’s a reminder of God’s infinite love and care. Robert Berry is on instrumentals. Lauren Kadlec sings all the parts in the “children’s choir” harmony.
Enjoy!
Tom Mohr is the author of the book "Letters to Rising Leaders". In his new podcast series, he builds on the themes in his book to explore leadership-- especially the connection between Christian faith and action.
He has created this podcast series for one reason: you are the light of the world. From community to church to charity to nation to planet, God needs a new generation of leaders to rise. Not just any leaders-- leaders of goodness. And goodness doesn't just happen. It takes soul work. Which is why, to our next generation of leaders, Tom Mohr says this: "Come to God, make right your soul, and then go into this hurting world to serve."
Each 10 minute podcast will include stories, biblical reflections and music-- yes, music. Every week, the podcast will end with the song of the week.
