In this episode, Ryan Franklin sits down with Stan Gleason, Assistant General Superintendent of the UPCI, bishop of The Life Church of Kansas City, and author of The Priesthood of the Believers, to talk about what it actually looks like to break through that ceiling. Bishop Gleason makes a compelling case that the key to church growth isn't a better program or a bigger budget. It's releasing the saints to do the work of the ministry. If you're a pastor or church leader ready to stop being the bottleneck, this conversation is for you.Purchase Bishop Stan Gleason’s books:The Priesthood of the Believers: https://pentecostalpublishing.com/products/the-priesthood-of-the-beliversFollow to Lead: https://pentecostalpublishing.com/products/follow-to-lead-the-journey-of-a-disciple-maker The Unflawed Leader: https://pentecostalpublishing.com/products/the-unflawed-leader-creating-a-culture-of-christlike-wellness-in-the-local-church Purchase Christian Leader Sight Planner (a tool that has drastically changed Ryan’s productivity): Black Cover – https://amzn.to/3JpBHvm Blue Cover – https://amzn.to/4ouFRB9 Green Cover – https://amzn.to/4oXVLUrPurchase The Christian Leader Blueprint book today: https://www.ryanfranklin.org/blueprintbookConnect with Ryan: Email: [email protected] Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rnfranklin/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rnfranklin/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rnfranklin/ Website: https://www.ryanfranklin.org Audio mastering by Apostolic Audio: https://www.apostolic-audio.com#leadership, #thoughtleadership, #ministry, #pastor, #pastors, #churches, #leadershiptraining, #churchleader, #churchleaders, #influence, #leadershipdevelopment, #coaching, #executivecoach, #leadershipcoaching, #productivitycoach, #productivity, #growthmindset, #theproductiveleader, #ChristianLeader, #ChristianLeadership, #LeadershipPodcast, #FaithAndBusiness, #PodcastInterview, #ChristianEntrepreneurship, #KingdomImpact, #PodcastInspiration, #LeadershipJourney, #PurposeDriven, #ChristianPodcast, #LeadershipEssentials, #LeadershipFundamentalsSend us Fan Mail
