Special guest Pastor Tom Tammaro from New Life Church (https://nlc.today) in Biddeford, Maine joins the Growing Faith Podcast to have a great discussion about how to lead people in times of tension.
Times of tension lead to tough conversations - how do we move forward together when we disagree? How do we manage the tensions and still work together and be the church?
I think you will gain some helpful insights from the 5 simple points he brings out.
