In this episode of The Christian Leader Made Simple Show, Ryan Franklin sits down with Scott Sistrunk to talk honestly about rejection, failure, and staying motivated in ministry. Drawing from his missions experience and a powerful story of a Middle Eastern convert, Scott shares how leaders can endure resistance without letting it redefine their calling. This conversation offers biblical perspective, real-world wisdom, and practical encouragement for pastors and church leaders who feel worn down, discouraged, or tempted to quit.
