Moses and Jethro

What does it feel like to be led by you? That's the question sitting underneath this message, drawn from the moment Jethro watches Moses run himself and an entire nation ragged, one dispute at a time. It's a close look at Exodus 18, where a father-in-law finds the courage to tell a national leader "this is not good," and that leader finds the humility to actually listen.

The message walks through how activity gets mistaken for faithfulness, why every leader has blind spots, and what changes when someone is willing to develop others instead of carrying everything alone. It closes with two questions worth taking home: what truth do you need the courage to say, and what truth do you need the humility to hear.

This one is for anyone carrying responsibility for other people; parents, pastors, managers, team leads who hasn't stopped to ask who has permission to tell them they're wrong.
