In this episode of Thinking Christian, James sits down with Dr. Chris Rappazzini, professor of leadership at Anderson University, author of Moving Forward After Messing Up, and founder of Faithful Steps Forward. James and Chris discuss how leadership serves as a specialized form of discipleship, the tension between cultural adaptation and biblical foundations in leadership theories, and the enduring challenge of learning from our failures.
Dr. Rappazzini shares insights from his personal journey, his work with leaders in organizational settings, and the biblical framework for moving forward after mistakes. Along the way, we explore themes of resilience, self-awareness, and the balance between mission and people-focused leadership.
Whether you're a seasoned leader, someone navigating life's challenges, or simply looking for a thoughtful conversation on integrating faith and leadership, this episode is for you.
