What if the greatest threat to your ministry isn’t burnout—it’s playing it safe?
In this episode, Dr. Cole Braun, CEO of the Lutheran High School Association of Greater Milwaukee, joins Pastor Tim Ahlman to unpack what bold leadership looks like in the Church today.
From turning around struggling schools to writing his upcoming book Why Wouldn’t You?, Dr. Braun shares how curiosity, collaboration, and risk-taking can transform ministry culture.
Together, they discuss:
- Why most Christian leaders dream too small
- How fear keeps churches from growing
- The power of unity between schools and churches
- Why curiosity is one of the most underrated spiritual gifts
💡 “If we serve a massive God, why are we dreaming so small?”
— Dr. Cole Braun
Let’s lead boldly, together.
