The Narrow Path of Formation (Featuring Rich Villodas)
About this episode
Rich Villodas discusses the importance of leading from identity in Christ rather than activity or gifting.
What could change for you if you returned to the first principles of the Gospel? In this episode, join Rich Villodas, Bethany Allen, and Bryan Rouanzoin as they discuss leading from the inside out, and the kind of ministry that can be sustained not by activity or gifting, but only by an identity secured in Christ. This teaching was delivered by Rich Villodas at the Practicing the Way Pastor Conference in Portland, Oregon, in 2024.
