The gradual drift that precedes leadership failure rarely makes headlines until it's too late. In this profound episode, Bishop Harvey, General Superintendent of Australia and pastor of The Pentecostals of Sydney, unpacks the critical discipline of self-awareness that can protect spiritual leaders from becoming another statistic.
With alarming research showing 90% of pastors reporting frequent fatigue and 89% having considered leaving ministry, Bishop Harvey provides a roadmap for sustainable leadership through seven areas of essential self-awareness. From recognizing creeping cynicism that erodes wonder, to acknowledging our blind spots, biases, and the dangerous "Messiah syndrome" that drives burnout, his message offers both warning and wisdom.
Drawing from biblical examples and personal experience leading churches across Australia and the Pacific, Bishop Harvey demonstrates how small, unchecked attitudes eventually become major ministry liabilities. His practical approach includes developing disciplines like the five-minute journal, establishing trusted relationships with honest feedback, and recognizing emotional triggers before they lead to destructive behaviors.
What sets this conversation apart is the rare vulnerability from a high-level leader discussing not just external leadership challenges, but the internal work required for lasting ministry impact. Bishop Harvey models the very humility he advocates, offering practical tools while acknowledging his own journey toward greater self-awareness.
Whether you're a seasoned minister, emerging leader, or simply someone who cares about spiritual health, this episode provides essential insights for avoiding the subtle erosion that precedes public failure. Take this opportunity to examine your heart, recalibrate your leadership approach, and establish practices that will sustain your ministry for the long haul.

We love to hear from our listeners! Thank you!
