Every leader makes mistakes, but not every leader knows how to recover from them. Other leaders don't even admit they made a mistake and will do everything to remain "credible".

In this episode, I unpack what to do when your decisions, words, or actions have damaged trust with your team.

You’ll learn why your mistakes don’t disqualify you, how Scripture points us toward humility and restoration, and practical steps you can take to rebuild credibility and lead with confidence again.

📖 What you’ll hear in this episode:

• 
  

  The biblical perspective on failure and redemption in leadership

  
  


• 
  

  Why humility and honesty are essential for regaining trust

  
  


• 
  

  Three practical steps you can take to start rebuilding today

  
  

Whether you’ve just walked through a tough leadership moment or want to be prepared for the future, this conversation will remind you that God can use even your failures as part of your leadership story.

👉 Listen now and discover how to restore trust and move forward in faith.
