In this episode of the Church Leadership Podcast, John McGee and Dave Bruskas walk through 1 Timothy 1:12–20 and unpack what it means to lead from grace—not performance. The Apostle Paul calls himself the worst of sinners, and then says Jesus considered him trustworthy. What does that mean for church leaders today? 
 
Together, John and Dave explore: 
  • Why ministry is a gift to be received—not a goal to be achieved 
  • The danger of becoming a “practical legalist” in ministry 
  • Why alignment between your doctrine and your life matters
