They are sons first — secure enough to serve, humble enough to learn, and faithful enough to follow before they ever lead others.

They understand that before God calls someone to lead publicly, He often teaches them to follow faithfully in private.In this episode, Hannes van den Heever and Greg Fenn, elders in JoshGen Mossel Bay, share their personal journeys of leadership, discipleship, growth, and learning what it means to lead from a place of sonship and surrender within the community.Join us as we explore the qualities that shape healthy leaders: character, humility, obedience, courage, servanthood, integrity, and spiritual maturity.Real leadership doesn’t begin on a platform. It begins with surrender, faithfulness, and the willingness to follow well.
