When it comes to manhood, are you living as a provider or just performing for the crowd?
In week two of Toy Stories, Jon Weece sat down to unpack what didn’t make it into his sermon, Provider vs. Performer. From Joseph’s humility to David’s restraint, and from his father’s influence to his own lessons in leadership, Jon shares why meekness isn’t weakness, it’s strength under control..
This week’s challenge: stop trying to impress, and start serving the people God has placed in your life.
What we discuss
- Joseph & David as models of humility
- Lessons from Jon’s dad
- The difference between pride and humility
- Meekness as power under control
- What to do if you didn’t have a strong father figure
- Handling criticism and compliments in leadership
- The nine most important words: “I was wrong. I am sorry. Please forgive me.”
