SHOW NOTES Lessons Learned, pt2 Leadership in Context with Keith Tucci Episode 162 Lesson #1: Anger is a manifestation of selfishness. Lesson #2: Slow down. I was never good at taking a break. Mainly because I was always a pretty high energy person. I would rather do something than sit around and do nothing. I like staying engaged. The problem with that is that you think everyone is on that same level. One of the mistakes I made was equating that energy level with being right

If you are not taking a break, not enjoying the fruit of your labor, always pressing, you are going to see the glass half-empty. When you are not taking a break, you are not operating in faith. When you are not taking a break, you are not taking time to be thankful and show gratitude for what you have accomplished. When you are always being driven, you are training your heart to not be thankful. Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE. #leadership #KeithTucci #pod

SHOW NOTES Lessons Learned, pt1 Leadership in Context with Keith Tucci Episode 161 Lesson #1: Anger is a manifestation of selfishness. Growing up, I had a severe anger and rage problem. I moved around a lot and was in a lot of different schools. I learned how to fight. I learned that anger could be a great tool of intimidation and could fire your emotions to do things that were outside your ability and character. When I was born again, there was a peace that came upon my life

Anger is the manifestation of selfishness. Anger is just a big boy pouting because he didn’t get his own way. When you show anger to people you love, people who are close to you, and you are using intimidating language or posture, what you are doing is being a two-year old who has overgrown your britches. We each have a capacity for love and anger. If you are not loving the right thing, you are going to love the wrong thing. If you aren’t being angry at the right thing, you a

SHOW NOTES The Leadership of Moses, pt10 Leadership in Context with Keith Tucci Episode 160 Moses understood that his calling was sacred. Everyone is called. Everyone has a place and position on the wall in the body of Christ. Everyone has a voice to the world. We might have different gifts, but we have the same Lord. We might have a difference of administration but the same spirit. You don’t have to be an apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor, or teacher to know that you are

Everyone is called. Everyone has a place and position on the wall in the body of Christ. Everyone has a voice to the world. We might have different gifts, but we have the same Lord. We might have a difference of administration but the same spirit. You don’t have to be an apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor, or teacher to know that you are called. There is a place and a people that you should be connected to. Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE. #leadership #K

SHOW NOTES The Leadership of Moses, pt9 Leadership in Context with Keith Tucci Episode 159 Moses was not afraid to teach people about the consequences of sin. In many churches, the emphasis on sin is that God forgives your sin. That is a wonderful truth, but there are consequences, even to forgiven sin. If you rob a bank and you ask God to forgive you, He will, but you are probably going to go to jail. Sin has consequences. One of the reasons that sin has consequences is that

God hates sin. He hates what destroys us. He hates the consequences of sin. God loves to forgive sin. But sin still has consequences. And as a leader, you have to not just teach about the consequences of sin, but also point it out.

SHOW NOTES The Leadership of Moses, pt8 Leadership in Context with Keith Tucci Episode 158 All great leaders move in faith. All great leaders have vision. All great leaders understand that they have to operate over their heads. You will never be able to call people to do extraordinary things if you only operate ordinarily. The other side of that is knowing your limits and being clear about them. You don’t have to be a five-talent person to be used mightily by God. Numbers 11:

SHOW NOTES The Leadership of Moses, pt7 Leadership in Context with Keith Tucci Episode 156 Numbers 14:4-8 So they said to one another, “Let us appoint a leader and return to Egypt.” Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces in the presence of all the assembly of the congregation of the sons of Israel. Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, of those who had spied out the land, tore their clothes; and they spoke to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, sayin

Circumstances from hell are designed to cause you to lose traction, cause you to stop moving forward. When you are having circumstances stirred up by hell, you have to put those circumstances in a box. The facts might be accurate, but the Truth is that you will arrive at your destination.

The Leadership of Moses, pt6 Leadership in Context with Keith Tucci Episode 156 Numbers 10:2-4 Make yourself two trumpets of silver, of hammered work you shall make them; and you shall use them for summoning the congregation and for having the camps set out. When both are blown, all the congregation shall gather themselves to you at the doorway of the tent of meeting. Yet if only one is blown, then the leaders, the heads of the divisions of Israel, shall assemble before you.

Moses blew two trumpets to call together all of the tribes and one trumpet to call together his leaders. When he blew the trumpet, those who had ears to hear, those who knew the tune of his heart, would show up. This is a good picture of pastoral ministry--clear leadership and clear communication.

The Leadership of Moses, pt5 Leadership in Context with Keith Tucci Episode 155 There is a conflict between listening to people and hearing from God. Listening to them and hearing from Him—where does that tension begin and where does it end? We see this is prominent in the life of Moses. As a leader, you have a spiritual responsibility to hear from God. Primarily, hearing from God is discovering what God is saying in His Word. If you want to increase your hearing, increase yo

Great leaders learn to navigate the tension in hearing God and listening to people. Develop your listening. Don’t feel like you have to give an instant answer. Learn to bring the two together. At the end of the day, give God the credit. This is a tension you will always have, so you might as well get good at balancing it out.

The Leadership of Moses, pt4 Leadership in Context with Keith Tucci Episode 154 When we talk about Moses, it’s easy to take him out of context and forget the incredible circumstantial environmental challenges that he had. These leadership lessons that we learn from him are so applicable in the trenches of leadership. Numbers 8:11 Aaron then shall present the Levites before the Lord as a wave offering from the sons of Israel, that they may qualify to perform the service of the

Moses was a wave offering. He left everything behind and was constantly giving it all. You are a wave offering. Having a wave offering mentality is saying, “Everything I am belongs to you, Lord. It’s all Yours.” That needs to be the attitude of every leader. Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE. #leadership #KeithTucci #podcast #LeadershipinContext #podcastepisode

The Leadership of Moses, pt3 Leadership in Context with Keith Tucci Episode 153 As we continue our series on the leadership of Moses, we are going to pick up his story in Numbers 7. They are getting ready to build the tabernacle. Moses was exerting leadership, and things were going well. Numbers 7:10 And the leaders offered the dedication offering for the altar when it was anointed, so the leaders offered their offering before the altar. Moses went to the heads of the tribes,

Giving is a foundation of leadership. As leaders, we should model giving--giving our time, our treasure, and our talent. We teach people to give their life to God by modeling it in our lives.
