Leadership and discipleship often look like two very different things. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Today, CEO, leadership expert, and founding pastor Carey Nieuwhof joins us for the first episode of the Red Letter Disciple Podcast.
Season 1 of The Red Letter Disciple Podcast could not have been possible without our friends from The Giving Church. Did you know 45% of those that give to church give $200 or less in a year? The potential to increase giving is certainly in your church and The Giving Church can help you unleash greater generosity.

Don’t despise small beginnings. – Carey Nieuwhof
Good leadership and discipleship can often look very similar. – Carey Nieuwhof
Jesus calls us to do things leaders wouldn’t normally do. – Zach Zehnder
As a leader, use your power for the benefit of others. – Carey Nieuwhof
Sometimes, doing the right thing is going to cost you. It’s worth the cost. – Carey Nieuwhof
You have three to five highly productive hours a day. Do your most important work in those hours. – Carey Nieuwhof
As a Christian, do your devotional time during your most productive time. It’s the most important thing you do, so it deserves your best attention and focus. – Carey Nieuwhof
The superpower we all need is focus. – Carey Nieuwhof
More and more people aren’t even touching anything electronic for the first few hours a day. – Carey Nieuwhof
Prioritize your kids when they’re at home. – Carey
If you work with your mind, relax with your hands. – Carey
If you listen longer than most people listen, you hear things most people never hear. – Carey
For so many Christians, the discipleship process isn’t very clear.
They know they need to go to church, pray, not sin, and maybe attend a small group. While these are great things, they don’t outline a clear path leading people to live more like Jesus.
We’d love to introduce you to the 40-Day Red Letter Challenge.
When you and your church take the challenge, you’ll have a clear 40-day discipleship path that will help you master five key areas of discipleship.

“My mother always taught me that if I have nothing good to say, don’t say anything at all, so I’ll keep quiet.” – Carey when asked about people who have Traeger Grills.
Zach owns a Traeger Grill.
Chris occasionally mows the yard prematurely to avoid cleaning the house.
Off-brand Big Green Eggs are just as unacceptable as Traegers.
Carey still mows his own lawn.
