When Wounded Leaders Find a Place to Heal

About this episode

This episode features an unscripted conversation with Pastor Hank Johnson about the hidden costs of leadership and the importance of healing and authenticity.

In this Unscripted Conversation, we explore the leadership journey of Pastor Hank Johnson, senior pastor of Harrisburg Brethren in Christ Church. Through stories of displacement, mentorship, and years of ministry, this conversation reveals how leadership is shaped not just by calling, but by the experiences that form us along the way. Together we talk about the hidden cost of leadership, the importance of authenticity, and how many leaders quietly carry wounds from their roles. Hank reflects on servant leadership, learning to care for himself while caring for others, and how healthy communities create space for honesty, healing, and growth.
