What if real growth doesn’t come from avoiding hardship, but from learning to walk through it with Jesus?
This week we’re chatting with John Velsor, senior pastor in Minnesota and founder of Kingdom Leadership. John shares his powerful redemption story—from growing up in church, to running hard into addiction, to a life-changing encounter with Jesus that met him at his lowest point and changed everything.
John unpacks what it means to live a cruciform life—a life shaped by the cross. Discussing belief, obedience, and why following Jesus doesn’t remove hardship, but teaches us how to endure it and grow through it. You’ll hear why comfort can be the enemy of growth, how obedience positions us for resurrection power, and why miracles often begin with problems we’d rather avoid.
