Finance leader and ministry founder Cory Patton joins Kenny Lange to talk about why slowing down might be the most strategic move a leader can make. Cory unpacks the “never enough” trap, the difference between icing and cake in both faith and business, and why hurry makes it nearly impossible to love God and people well. Drawing from Scripture, spiritual formation, and his own journey, he shows how the pace of discipleship is slow—and how that slow pace actually leads to better decisions, deeper relationships, and more meaningful results. If you’ve felt driven, hurried, or secretly exhausted as a leader, this conversation will help you rethink your pace and return to abiding in Jesus as your source of strength and clarity.
