In this episode of Rooted, we dive into the pervasive issue of moral failures within church leadership and its broader implications on modern church culture. We explore how these challenges are not new but have been present since biblical times, illustrating that they stem from a fundamental sin problem rather than the size or structure of a church. We discuss the importance of addressing root issues rather than just symptoms.

We share insights on how every generation faces cautionary tales, both in scripture and modern media, and the necessity of understanding and confronting these stories to guide the next generation. We also tackle the allure of platform-building in ministry, the dangers of using Jesus to advance personal agendas, and the crucial role of authentic community and accountability in preventing moral failings.

Throughout the conversation, we emphasize the principles of confessing, confronting, and constructing a spiritual formation that abides in Christ, drawing from John 15:1-8. This episode offers a candid look at the realities of church leadership, the pressures of modern ministry, and the slow, steady work required to cultivate true, lasting fruit in our lives. Tune in for a discussion that challenges and encourages us to seek deeper roots in our faith.
