Episode notes
Smallness Increases Spiritual Authority
- Smallness is a spiritual principle that increases authority rather than a strategy to hide from ministry.
- Leslie and Taylor describe "do more by doing less" and "grow larger by growing smaller" as practices tested through a school and arts nonprofit in Globe, AZ.
School Failure Became A Discipleship Laboratory
- Leslie recounts starting a three-acre school and how expectations of scaling never materialized, which forced internal transformation.
- The school became a discipleship lab that changed her prayers from "bring them to my school" to "reach them wherever they are," later enabling partnerships with local schools.
Build Breadth Through Faithful Small Work
- Trust God for breadth while practicing faithful, small-scale work that builds authority to pray for larger outcomes.
- Leslie's small team of mostly part-time young staff runs brief school workshops yet reaches ~1,800 students annually through partnerships.
