  • The Leader as Steward (with Colin Smith)

    The Leader as Steward (with Colin Smith)
    2026/06/25

    Church leaders can be described as stewards of the mystery of God and his church. How does this description help leaders in their ministry?

    In this episode, Adrian Reynolds (Associate National Director) is joined by Colin Smith (Founder and Teaching Pastor of Open the Bible) to discuss the parable of the faithful manager in Luke 12:42-48.

    This episode was recorded at the 2026 European Leadership Forum where Colin preached from this passage. In this episode, he helps to unpack a little more of the parable and see how it applies - in both its warnings and encouragements - to leaders serving in our churches.
