    Message Awesome, Marketing Overkill
    I love Jesus and I’m a huge fan of Craig and his church, but it feels like 60% of this content is marketing. Focus on the value.

    Thank You
    My family and I began attending Life.Church in Wellington, FL after we visited their fall festival. The fall festival was such a warm, welcoming, inclusive, and encouraging event. We were welcomed with open arms, food, beverages, amazing staff and volunteers, and our 11 year old daughter had a blast with all the different activities for the children. The first Sunday we attended, I was in awe of the music. It is so loud, so powerful, so inspirational, so convicting, and the members of the band are so deeply passionate when they sang. When the sermon started, I was taken by surprise that the message was delivered on a big screen by Pastor Craig, and not the lead pastor of this location. Although surprised, I was very intrigued as so many are, by Pastor Craig’s delivery and effectiveness of his message. When we left that sermon, my wife and I looked at each other and said “We are coming back.” I looked at my daughter and she was smiling and said, “Daddy I love it, let’s come here every Sunday.” As a father in the midst of learning to lead my family through faith, that was all I needed to hear and we now attend every Sunday. Since attending Life.Church, I’ve learned more about Pastor Craig and discovered his leadership podcast. While listening to some episodes here and there, I have now begun to start my day at 4:30 AM, with 45 minutes of worship in the Bible App, followed by a 2 mile walk listening to most recent and prior episodes. My core values are so aligned with Pastor Craig’s perspective, both spiritually and personally, and I am really thankful to have learned about Life.Church and this Podcast. My family and I appreciate the work, dedication, selflessness and sacrifices that are made to consistently deliver his message in such a powerful way. Thank you Pastor Craig for being the leader you are, and bringing your leadership to millions of others like myself, you make us better. God Bless 🙏

    Excellent
    His teaching and teaching style is fantastic. He does not waste time and provides massive value. It has helped me exponentially.

    Mission critical
    This podcast is an amazing tool for leaders. It is highly concentrated for such a short amount of time. They don’t overproduce the episodes, and I appreciate that they don’t try to make too many episodes to quickly. It keeps the information relevant and it doesn’t feel like they are just grabbing at the air trying to come up with something to talk about.

  • Taylor Lape

    Craig’s delivery is high quality. If you’re looking for a podcast that aligns with the Bible and gives you practical tips to being a better leader, this is it!

    Grateful
    These episodes have helped guide me through running a small business. I own a small woman owned business. We perform general contracting. I have no background in business or marketing. Only civil engineering, and hands on construction. So listening to Craig has really helped me as a leader. He has also helped me work my 2 employees into leadership roles for the company. I am grateful for the information.

    Exceptional Content!
    This leadership podcast is a must listen! Thank you, Craig, for challenging us every single time!!

    Waited Too Long
    Like many, being busy kept me from taking advantage of the incredible material Craig shares. Or maybe it was just low IQ. All I know is that when I got involved revitalizing a church these podcasts turned to gold for me. Every word and sentence is measured. Now I’m in overdrive listening and processing.
  • landodabeast
    Love this Podcast!
    I am always blessed by the highly practical and God honoring truths and strategies shared by Pastor Craig. I use them in my professional and personal life. I know I am better for it and so are those I lead. I also appreciate the concise duration as it is an easy listen on my commute.
  • Walkerdustin1

    Better leaders every time
    Every episode makes me a better leader! One of the tightest yet most helpful podcasts I listen to. Pastor Craig makes a great use of the time you give him.
  • Shannon sti
    Thank you for educating about leadership
    The podcast about hard conversations was spot on. Changing the mindset that hard conversations are not hard, but wonderful developmental conversations. Thank you for breaking down old barriers for leaders and helping them develop new ones. I look forward to hearing next podcast
  • Art of Forgiveness
    Best Leadership Podcast!
    I’ve been listening to Craig’s leadership podcast since 2018. It’s changed my leadership at work and at home in ways I never could have imagined. I’m beyond grateful for the incredible impact Craig’s teaching has had on my life - both through this podcast and through his ministry at Life.Church. From my head, heart, and soul - I’m grateful.
  • Joamaga

    Every Leader Should Listen
    Whether you share the Faith or not, every leader should listen to this show. I can’t help but to tell all of my friends how much they’d benefit if they listened just like it has benefited me. Keep up the good work!

    I love this show! Such great information!
  • Matt Calvery
    My #1 leadership podcast
    I first found Craig, almost 20 years ago when I was lost and did not know who I was in Jesus Christ! Since the day I accepted Jesus Christ, he’s gone from my pastor to one of my favorite Christ centered leadership coaches from afar! Thank you for being the man that God is created you to be and who was there all alone before you knew who you were in Jesus Christ! Thank you for the pastor and the man, the husband and the father and grandfather that you are. May God continue to bless you in Jesus name.

    So Much Wisdom
    I am so thankful for this podcast and all its leadership principles, values, and wisdom is gives! Every episode I walk away with so much, and I always look forward to a new one!
  • EM in GA
    A leader for leaders
    I often feel completely inadequate as a leader in my organization. Podcasts like Criag’s have helped me grow in my leadership tremendously. My favorite aspect of Criag’s podcast is that there is a biblical foundation for his messaging, his thoughts are filtered through the gospel. The business world is a dark place so being able to learn in the light is exactly what I need to move forward with my God-given purpose.
  • Nursegirl621
    Great teaching and inspiration
    I love Craig’s passion for leadership and his guests with different perspectives. I’ve learned from someone as young as Sadie Robertson and enjoy her views to many others who are closer to my age but offer different experiences and insights. Thank you Craig for exposing us to great leaders and motivated upward thinking people. Many favorite guests but really enjoyed Josh Axe, Priscilla Shirar, Sadie and Pastor Steven. Keep up the great work of challenging us to take our thinking to new heights!
  • Get rid of messenger
    This is a great tool!
    I have listened to all of these episodes in the last year or so, and there is so much here. I wish I had the time to go back and study each one. The material is such a great tool in leadership. Put the lessons and questions into practice with your team, you won’t regret it!
  • Lonniejay20
    Thankful!

    Craig respects your time each and every episode is full of so much insight, knowledge and wisdom. I have learned so much just from the few episodes i've listened to. Keep up the great work and God bless you!!!!

    “Dr” John Axe
    I was so disappointed to see you endorsing this chiropractor who fraudulently refers to himself as a physician. It is dangerous to embrace someone who sells non-evidenced based medical advice, as so many people trust in your guidance as our pastor. As a medical doctor, I fear how many patients will not trust the sound medical advice of their physicians due to pod casts like this. I pray that you would consider your influence on your congregation, and far reaching influence to others with the leaders you choose to follow and support.

    Gratitude
    Craig thanks us for our valuable time each and every podcast. Genuinely. I appreciate your valuable time too Craig. Also congratulations on getting your private pilots license, I remember listening to recent podcasts of you mentioning you were working towards that and to hear you achieved successfully today is awesome 🙏🏾 I love the content you produce and the variable principles from your leadership.
  • Lala akins
    Thank you

    Excellent Parallel
    I’ve been listening for a while and love the practical nature of Craig’s teachings. Episode 152 really hit home and I felt compelled to leave a review. This is certainly a podcast I look forward to listening to and incorporate takeaways into my own personal Leadership. Enjoy!!
  • greenbearcrypto
    Always looking forward to this
    Craig, thank you so much for being a great channel for leadership. As someone currently learning the ropes of leading teams and growing organizations, this has given crucial pointers with balanced view. I’ve gotten two types of advice in my life - 1. be very assertive and you’ll get stuff done! 2. emotional connection leads to organic growth! And those two seem to be polar opposites and both have pros and cons but you bring very clear and balanced values that I appreciate so much 🙏 May God bless you
  • BMDKKM
    Always a great podcast
    I love this podcast! I always learn how to be a better leader, and a better person o really! Thank you for investing in me.
  • Sebastien Gignac
    Awesome podcast!!!
    Dear Craig, I am a HVAC/refrigeration technician aspiring to one day hopefully become manager. I got the suggestion to listen to your podcast from my regional manager (my boss’s boss) last fall and finally got caught up listening to all the episodes about 2 weeks ago. I must admit that I am grateful and admire such a large amount of positive and useful content. You speak loud and clear, are very articulate and even repeat yourself often which I find particularly helpful since I am a French Canadian, English not being my native language. Sadly, I couldn’t say the same about every one of your guests, which is the reason why I am writing to you today. In yesterday’s episode with Jamie Kern Lima, I couldn’t understand even half of what she was saying , this time again, same as during her previous interview on your show. I believe this was due to either low quality equipment or poor internet connection but in any case, I was particularly sad to not be able to comprehend that lady, whom I believe has a tremendous amount of knowledge, experience and intelligence to communicate. Thanks to the leader guide though, I still got to catch up on the essential part of her teaching. In any case, I sincerely am grateful for your amazing work and wanted to take the time to thank you for all the help you bring to me and the whole community. Thank you! Sebastien

    Love listening to the guy who spoke about his regiment of diet and exercise. In addition, solid, skills and leadership. It all starts with self-discipline. I’m not even close these guys, but they give me something to shoot for! Cheers
  • Pastor Hayden
    Amazing!
    This is such a great tool for leaders and for the one that would like to improve themselves. I am a local preacher, a husband to 1 and a father of 3. This podcast has truly helped me in becoming the best leader I can be. The wisdom of the Lord flows through Pastor Craig and it is great!

    I love to listen to Craig Groeschels leadership podcasts! And he’s a great interviewer! Love hearing some of the people he chooses to interview. I share almost every one I hear with people inside and outside my people groups. Wish he could come help our staff grow!
  • Jhm0925
    Yes!
    Every time I can learn from pastor Craig- I lean in! Whether that’s podcasts, sermons or books- he was clearly intended to lead and teach. As a fellow leadership expert, I’m grateful for everything he pours into me (and others)!
  • MomLeader88
    Mother, Business Leadership, Ministry Leadership
    Thank you for the monthly leadership content. I am realizing God is after the Women I am becoming. I feel my roots are strengthened with these podcasts. It’s in the growing process that we will be strong leaders. Personally, Some of the content is for the current season and some I know is for a later season. All of it is truly LIFE giving. Thank you to the whole team that makes these happen!!
  • Kris B
    Such intentional content for growing leaders!
    Thank you, thank you, thank you! I am a minister & the COO at a ministry and your podcast has been so helpful to me in sharpening my skills and even locating how and where I can get better as a leader. I’m very grateful for your dedication, openness and desire to help us all be better leaders so everyone can win!

    I can’t believe how much valuable direction can be given in EVERY episode! Great for companies and great for moms, like me. Thank you!

    Never Stop Growing
    I’ve been a leader all my life- the lesson’s Craig teaches truly have made me better- not just as a leader but as a husband, father, and follower of Christ. Thank You Craig for your leadership.
  • Kkkristayyyyy
    Exceptional leadership value
    Craig, I look forward to every podcast that comes out from you. The topics you talk about are always interesting and provide a ton of value. If said this to friends and I’ll say it here. I think your the next John Maxwell when it comes to leadership training. Keep up the great work!
  • londonanstine
    10/10
    Craig has practical advice that doesn’t help you achieve goals but change the system that will grow you 1% every day to maximize and become the person God has called you to be.
  • Little Lunch Maker
    Get focused and encouraged!
    Every time I listen in, I am encouraged and inspired to focus on what matters most and do the work God has assigned to me. My leadership in business, and in my home (mom of 7 kiddos here!) is better because of the content you share. Incredibly grateful for the team’s consistency in creating and producing these life-giving podcasts! May God bless you, and expand your reach!
  • Luke Wycuff
    No resource has been more transformative
    When I started listening to this podcast, I was in a frustrating and discouraging season of waiting. I didn't have the opportunities or influence I desired, and overall, I was very unhappy in my role in the organization I was in. In the midst of a really hard time in my life both personally and professionally, this podcast energized me again. The content inspired growth in me and challenged me to make that season about being ready for the next. Your practical insights on how you became a disciplined person helped me become one. Even as a futuristic thinker and strategist, I have fallen in love with the process of growth, not the destination it leads to. I 100% am the the leader I am today because of your investment in me through this resource! 5 stars isn’t enough!!
  • mvelasco07
