Sometimes you just need a distraction from life. It adds balance, reduces cortisol, and laughter increases dopamine- so this is to get your week started with a laugh and a smile. I give you this week’s 🚨MONDAY MAYHEM🚨 Badly explain a movie OR a Bible story. The worse the description, the better. I’ll start: Man gets mad at God and accidentally books a 3-day B&B inside a large aquatic creature.🐳 Your turn. No explaining. No correcting. Just chaos. Laughter is the best way to disarm a crazy week. You got this!! 😁

Scripture is full of leaders who lost something significant — position, certainty, community, identity, or the future they thought they were building. Loss didn’t remove their calling, but it did change the way they led. Leadership in seasons of loss often looks quieter. Less directive. More surrendered. Sometimes it means: • letting grief have a voice instead of rushing to resolution • resisting the urge to replace what was lost too quickly • staying faithful with what remains, even when it feels small • choosing obedience over clarity • trusting God’s character when His plans feel unclear Loss has a way of stripping leadership down to its truest form — not powered by momentum or affirmation, but anchored in devotion, integrity, and trust. If you’ve ever had to lead after something ended, shifted, or was taken from you — what did that season teach you about how you lead now?

When we hear the word leadership, we often think titles, influence, platforms, or responsibility. But most real leadership happens quietly — in faithfulness, service, consistency, and the way we show up for people when no one is watching. I’d love to hear from you: How do you define leadership in your own life right now? It can be big, small, formal, informal — all of it matters here.

Not the Instagram version. Not the “someday” version. What does real rest look like for you right now — physically, emotionally, spiritually? There’s no right answer. Just honesty. This is a safe place for it.
