Rediscovering the Joy of Serving Others | Reid Stairs

In this episode of the Healthy Christian Leader Show, host Dwight Habermehl welcomes returning guest Reid Stairs for an honest conversation about rediscovering the joy of serving God’s people. A self-described “deeply committed introvert,” Reid shares how he moved from struggling to enjoy people to delighting in them after decades of ministry. Together, they explore why leaders can lose their joy, the importance of seeing others through God’s eyes, letting the Word and Spirit do the work, guarding against cynicism and burnout, and the value of rest and encouragement. Through Scripture, real-life stories, and practical wisdom, Dwight and Reid remind leaders that God isn’t finished with people yet—and that joy often grows when we stop trying to fix others and simply walk with them in love.
