Are you still listening? Listening is a huge part of corporate leadership discernment. Ruth points out the role of listening in the discernment process in Act 15. Leaders are often poor listeners and there are some helpful practices around becoming better listeners and guidance for noticing without judging. Ruth and Steve discuss the exciting things that happen coming out of silence when people are discerning together. You will want to hear the description of how to recognize the Spirit&#8217;s movement, and what happens when a \u201cway forward\u201d does not present itself. It is not over when we have discerned the will of God together \u2013 we have to do it! Ruth ends with a great encouragement for anyone who is overwhelmed by pursuing God\u2019s will together.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.podbean.com\/media\/player\/7wpbh-86193d?from=shortcode&amp;width=100%25&amp;height=100&amp;share=1&amp;fonts=Helvetica&amp;auto=0&amp;download=0&amp;skin=1&amp;resource=episode%3D7wpbh-86193d&amp;domain=com&amp;btn-skin=107&amp;rtl=0\" width=\"100%\" height=\"100px\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/transformingcenter.org\/strengthening-the-soul-of-your-leadership-podcast\/season-three\/\">Listen to other episodes from Season 3<\/a> <a class=\"button-secondary\" href=\"https:\/\/transformingcenter.org\/strengthening-the-soul-of-your-leadership-podcast\/\">Access past podcast seasons<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/strengthening-soul-your-leadership-ruth-haley-barton\/id1214483830\">SUBSCRIBE ON ITUNES AND DON&#8217;T MISS FUTURE EPISODES<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Mentioned in this episode:<\/h2>\n<p><a title=\"Pursuing God's Will Together book\" href=\"https:\/\/resources.transformingcenter.org\/products\/pursuing-gods-will-together-a-discernment-practice-for-leadership-groups\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>Pursuing God\u2019s Will Together: A Discernment Practice for Leadership Groups<\/em><\/a> (Chapters 11 &amp;12)<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/transformingcenter.org\/in\/pgwt-book\/Movements%20in%20Corporate%20Leadership%20Discernment.pdf\"><em>Movements in Corporate Leadership Discernment<\/em><\/a> (pdf)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/transformingcenter.org\/in\/transforming-resources\/pgwt.shtml\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-8284\" src=\"https:\/\/transformingcenter.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/pgwt-book-ad.png\" alt=\"A call to leadership that is spiritual \u2013 leadership that is rooted in discerning and doing the will of God\" width=\"609\" height=\"149\" srcset=\"https:\/\/transformingcenter.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/pgwt-book-ad.png 1210w, https:\/\/transformingcenter.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/pgwt-book-ad-300x73.png 300w, https:\/\/transformingcenter.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/pgwt-book-ad-768x188.png 768w, https:\/\/transformingcenter.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/pgwt-book-ad-1024x250.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 609px) 100vw, 609px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last episode of Season 3.
