We all have to learn how to deal with suffering at some level. Those who learn to deal with it well become mature. Let’s talk about it.
In this episode, we discuss what it means to endure hardship well, using Jesus Christ as a model and walking through the R.A.R.E. habits as a guide to maturity. What does leadership look like at the five developmental stages of emotional maturity and what are some practical ways we can cultivate healthy workplace relationships and help people recover from stress?
The goal of this series is to equip you to live and lead with more emotional intelligence and resilience on your walk with God.
The book Rare Leadership by Marcus Warner & Jim Wilder combines theology, brain science, and decades of counseling and consulting experience to equip you to cultivate maturity in yourself and others, develop strong group identity, keep relationships bigger than problems, and more! Over the course of this series, we’ll be unpacking the four habits of a rare leader: Remain relational. Act like yourself. Return to joy. Endure hardship well.
