Ep. 75 - Hoping When It’s Dark - Bruce Roselle

from Chasing the Kingdom · host John Balauat - Kingdom Business Coach, Christian Entrepreneur

Being saved doesn’t mean you’re a good leader. Neither does having a title or a ministry. Good leadership takes intense intentionality, sacrifice, and work. In the book of Isaiah (chapter 60:2) it says that a thick darkness will cover the earth. Recently, in prayer, Holy Spirt told me that God was raising up leaders that would help people to Hope in the darkness. In this episode, I talk to my new friend, Bruce Roselle. He’s the founder of Roselle Leadership and author of the book, “Wholehearted Leadership: A Toolbelt for Christian Leaders.” Bruce has helped many leaders in the past 3 decades but in this chapter of his life, he feels a calling to help pastors, ministry directors, and Christian leaders become more authentic and wholehearted … so that they can help others to hope in the current darkness. Bruce has a lot to say.  If you’re a leader (or if you need a good one), listen in and glean from his incredible experience! About Bruce: Founder of Roselle Leadership (1995), brings a breadth of experience and a deep sense of purpose to the task of helping pastors, ministry directors, and Christian leaders become more authentic and wholehearted.   His current book, Wholehearted Leadership: A Toolbelt for Christian Leaders, was published by WestBow Press in August 2025. An Emeritus Psychologist (Minnesota), he holds a PhD in Counseling from the University of Minnesota and a BA in Psychology from Northwestern University.  Bruce has written a bi-monthly article for the American City Business Journals and articles that appeared in various professional journals in the field of leadership/talent management. He has published four other books, including: Vital Truths (2002) and Fearless Leadership (2006), which won two awards from independent publishing organizations--Best Business Book (bronze) and Best Self-Help Book (silver) in 2007, The Fraud Factor (2016), and The Great Leader Handbook (2019).
