https://a.co/d/0eg1Z01k

In this episode Jim Putman explains the principles behind his new book, Homegrown Leaders, and shows how churches can raise leaders from within through relational disciple-making, shared training for staff and elders, and a long-term coaching mindset rather than hiring from outside.

Jim contrasts broken systems with a homegrown approach, offers practical first steps leaders can take, and points listeners to resources like the Relational Discipleship Network and discipleship.org for further help.
