Inspired Leadership Podcast with Ron R. Kelleher

In this episode, we explore a powerful leadership moment from John 21: the disciples, weary after a long night of fishing, caught nothing—until Jesus told them to cast their net on the other side. That small shift—just a few feet—transformed failure into overflowing success. For leaders today, the message is clear: God’s guidance often comes not in sweeping changes, but in simple, obedient shifts. You don’t always need a new plan, team, or strategy. Sometimes you just need to hear His voice and take one faithful step in a slightly different direction. Ron Kelleher unpacks key...

IL #651: Wisdom and Prudence: The Leadership Balance Every Christian Needs show art IL #651: Wisdom and Prudence: The Leadership Balance Every Christian Needs

Inspired Leadership Podcast with Ron R. Kelleher

Christian leadership calls for more than just knowing truth—it demands skillful application. In this episode, Ron explores two essential biblical traits every leader must integrate: wisdom and prudence. While wisdom discerns what is right, prudence determines when and how to act on that truth. Without prudence, even the wisest leader can do damage. Drawing from Scripture, Ron highlights the difference between chokmah (wisdom) and ormah (prudence) and shares real-world leadership examples—from boardroom blunders to biblical case studies like Joseph, Nehemiah, and Jesus. You’ll learn how...

Have you ever felt hesitant to live out your faith at work—worried you might offend, lose respect, or risk your job? If so, you're not alone—and you’re in good company. Scripture is filled with leaders who felt just like you. But God didn’t call them because they were bold—He made them brave.

In this powerful episode, Ron shares his personal journey from cultural Christian to authentic follower—and how that shift reshaped not just his personal walk with God, but every aspect of his leadership. Drawing from Revelation 3 and Peter’s transformation in Acts, this episode invites Christian leaders to examine...

Inspired Leadership Podcast with Ron R. Kelleher

Spiritual shipwreck doesn’t start with a storm—it starts with a drift. In this episode, we explore the subtle but dangerous reality of leadership drift—how small compromises can slowly erode a leader’s integrity, influence, and relationship with God. Using the story of King David in 2 Samuel 11, we trace the path from comfort to compromise, from compromise to cover-up, and ultimately, to collapse. David didn’t fall all at once. It began when he stayed behind—when kings went off to war. That one small decision started a series of spiritual missteps that cost him dearly. We’ll...

Inspired Leadership Podcast with Ron R. Kelleher

Leadership rises and falls on integrity. When leaders live authentically—when their walk matches their talk—people follow with trust. But when leaders wear masks and say one thing while doing another, the damage can be catastrophic. In this episode, we explore the sobering truth about hypocrisy in leadership and why authenticity must be non-negotiable for Christian leaders. Using the powerful contrast between Barnabas and Ananias & Sapphira from Acts 4–5, we unpack what it means to lead with sincerity, how hypocrisy erodes credibility, and why your private life must align with your...

Have you ever stopped to consider why God asks questions in Scripture? He doesn’t need information—He already knows the answers. Instead, God’s Questions are designed to challenge, convict, and restore.

In this episode, we explore how God uses questions to shape leaders, from Adam’s moment of shame (“Where are you?”) to Peter’s restoration (“Do you love me?”). Each divine question serves a purpose—calling people to accountability, self-reflection, humility, restoration, and renewed direction.

As leaders, we often feel the pressure to have all the answers. But what if leadership is more about asking the right questions? What if the best way to guide and inspire others is to follow God’s example by using questions that encourage responsibility and growth?
