Leaders are Readers

Lead On Podcast

In this episode of the Lead On podcast, Jeff Iorg, president of the Southern Baptist Convention’s Executive Committee, discusses the significance of reading biographies for ministry leadership. He emphasizes that leaders should be readers, particularly of biographies, as they offer insights into how God can work through individuals to achieve remarkable outcomes. Biographies provide a slow, deliberate means of learning, allowing leaders to sharpen their minds and gain new perspectives. He encourages leaders to embrace the depth and inspiration found in biographies to enhance their leadership potential and broaden their understanding of God's providence.
