What happens when a man who's been paralyzed for 38 years meets someone who challenges his entire way of thinking? In this special second anniversary episode of The Biblical Leadership Show, we dive into John Chapter 5 to explore how Jesus approached a man stuck in both physical paralysis and mental stagnation with a deceptively simple question: "Do you want to get well?"
This powerful story reveals one of leadership's most transformative principles - good leaders help people see possibilities they can't see for themselves. After decades in the same condition, this man's vision had become limited by his circumstances. He couldn't imagine a different future until Jesus helped him envision one. How many people in your organization might be similarly stuck, unable to see beyond their current limitations?
We also examine how Jesus consistently led with authority rather than popularity, challenging established norms when they no longer served people. When religious leaders objected to healing on the Sabbath, Jesus prioritized compassion over convention - a reminder that effective leadership sometimes requires questioning "the way things have always been done."
As we celebrate two years of biblical leadership exploration, we reflect on our journey through all 39 books of the Old Testament and now into the New Testament. Our mission remains the same: helping you extract practical leadership wisdom from ancient texts by reading scripture through a "leadership filter." Whether you're managing a team, running a business, or simply wanting to grow as a leader, these timeless principles offer guidance for today's challenges.
