In this candid conversation, James Murray names three missteps from his planting journey—and the shifts they sparked. He unpacks starting against something instead of for a Spirit-given burden, leading from comparison rather than calling, and copy-pasting models instead of discerning a context-shaped approach. James then shares the course corrections: becoming burden-driven, reframing Sundays for edification that fuels everyday mission, and adopting a healthier scorecard—baptism, obedience, endurance, and multiplication over mere attendance. It’s a practical, pastoral guide for leaders who want depth without losing mission—and who are ready to lead differently.
