In this powerful episode of Follow 2 Lead, Tony Miltenberger sits down with Chris Freeman, pastor of City Church, one of the fastest-growing churches in America. Together they unpack the remarkable story behind the church’s explosive growth and the lessons learned along the way. Chris shares how empowering high-capacity leaders, protecting character, and cultivating accountability have been foundational in City Church’s success. He opens up about the creative methods used to keep young men engaged and responsible—yes, including pushups—and the daily disciplines that help leaders stay faithful to their calling. This conversation is a masterclass in leading through rapid growth without losing sight of humility, integrity, and God’s heart for diversity. Whether you’re a pastor, ministry leader, or entrepreneur, you’ll walk away inspired to dream bigger, lead better, and build teams rooted in faith and character. https://www.forthecity.com/about-us https://www.instagram.com/chris.s.freeman/ https://youtu.be/kwEqJOlsN04?si=Q9ryXTUE8i1sBMz1 ⁠⁠Please check out our sponsors EBEB Solutions⁠ ⁠Greg Fay Insurance ⁠Trent Barga - The Barga Team Real Estate⁠ ⁠That Sounds Fun Network: ⁠ ⁠Follow 2 Lead Coaching⁠ ⁠Tony on Instagram⁠ ⁠Check out our YouTube page⁠ ⁠Be sure to leave us a review on Apple Podcasts⁠ Interested in becoming a sponsor?
