David and Carey are joined by Jon Tyson—author, pastor and church planter in New York City (and COVID survivor, along with his family). Latest ChurchPulse Weekly polls show pastors are feeling great personal discouragement and burnout. Jon echoes these sentiments mentioning he and his staff have been working harder than they ever have before. David, Carey and Jon look at the opportunity to continue reaching people online and how, in some ways, the pandemic is inspiring churches to take advantage of digital ministry opportunities that have been available for years. Jon also encourages leaders who feel directionless right now to aspire to meet the needs of their specific people, instead of pursuing an arbitrary definition of “good leadership.”
