In this episode of the Lead to Serve, Pastor Ed Taylor and Bob Claycamp discuss the inevitable challenges as you serve. There are those times when you need to "press through" the challenges, no matter what they might be. Endurance is an underrated character trait and a gift from God for those who serve. There is a parallel between the changing seasons in nature and our challenges. He likens the falling leaves of autumn to the struggles we encounter, suggesting that just as trees shed their leaves, we too may experience loss or setbacks. This process, while uncomfortable, is essential for growth. I invite you to join us in this vital discussion. I know you will find it very helpful!
