About this episode

The episode discusses finding unity in partnership among diverse church leaders and the importance of humility and mutual submission.

Can we find unity in partnership, even in our differences? What does partnership look like between church leaders who are very different? In this candid conversation, Andrew Selley and Jonathan Stanfield open up about the beauty and cost of partnering across culture, personality, and leadership style. In many ways, partnership is like a marriage, so how do we stay united and avoid getting ‘divorced’? They reveal healthy relationship is built – not by always agreeing, but through humility, mutual submission, and keeping Jesus at the centre. They also highlight the power of diversity within leadership when we embrace our differences as a gift that shapes us.
