In this powerful episode, Mark Immelman and Pastor Kyle unpack the story of Gideon—the unlikely military leader who went from hiding in a winepress to leading Israel to victory with only 300 men. Known for his timidity, Gideon's journey is a testimony to how God calls out our potential, even when we don’t see it in ourselves.
Through candid conversation and spiritual insight, they explore key leadership lessons from Judges 6–8, including:
- How God qualifies the called—not the other way around
- Why faith doesn’t require perfection, just obedience
- What real humility looks like in leadership
- How success can test our character more than failure
- Why obedience often precedes understanding
Whether you’re leading a team, a household, or simply your own journey, this episode will encourage you to say "yes" even when you're unsure, and to lead with bold humility.
Key Verses Mentioned:
Judges 6:12 — “The Lord is with you, mighty warrior.”
Hebrews 11:1 — “Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”
Ephesians 4:29 — “Only speak what is helpful for building others up.”
Takeaways:
➡ Great leaders often emerge from unlikely places.
➡ Faith doesn’t eliminate fear—it gives you courage to obey anyway.
➡ True leadership is rooted in humility and trust in God’s strength, not your own.
