We all dream. Every night. Whether we remember them or not. And maybe — just maybe — those dreams aren’t random, ridiculous, or irrelevant. Maybe they’re trying to tell us something we’re too distracted, too busy, or too burned out to hear while we’re awake. Here to help us decode the language of dreams is Dr. Bonnie Buckner — founder of the International Institute for Dreaming and Imagery®, executive coach, faculty director at GWU’s Center for Excellence in Public Leadership, and author of The Secret Mind: Unlock the Power of Your Dreams to Transform Your Life . She’s spent her career teaching people how to use dreaming and imagery for personal growth, leadership, and creative breakthroughs . We explore: Why your dreams are worth paying attention to (even the weird ones) The science and strategy behind using dreams for personal development How feelings and subconscious wisdom can point to answers What to do if you don’t remember your dreams Why slowing down might be the key to speeding up your clarity Because what if the clarity you're chasing isn't out there — it's already in you, waiting for you to slow down, shut off, and tune in?

In this week’s episode of Conversations , I break down the crucial difference between renting and owning your vision and calling as a leader. Using the parables of Jesus in Matthew 25 and John 10, I explore what it means to take extreme ownership of your role and why many leaders fail due to a lack of personal responsibility. Learn how to shift from a renter who simply uses resources to an owner who maximizes them, and discover how ownership can transform your leadership and impact. If you’re ready to stop comparing and start building, tune in for actionable insights to elevate your leadership and make a lasting difference. 📲 Connect with me for more leadership & faith-driven insights: Instagram → @joshnandrew TikTok → @joshnandrew Website → https://joshandrew.org…
Is your church running like a flawless machine but missing the presence of the Holy Spirit? In this episode of Conversation , we unpack what it means to drift into becoming a “Robot Church”—where systems, structure, and efficiency take the driver’s seat instead of spiritual responsiveness and authentic leadership. We’ll walk through the key symptoms of a machine-like church: leadership misalignment, mechanics over ministry, protecting systems instead of following the Spirit, and the absence of true pastoral presence. More importantly, we’ll offer practical steps for leaders who want to unplug the machine and build a church that’s not just excellent, but Spirit-filled and alive with God’s presence. Whether you’re a pastor, church leader, or someone who cares about the health of the local church, this conversation will give you both insight and tools to lead with authenticity, presence, and power. 📲 Connect with me for more leadership & faith-driven insights: Instagram → @joshnandrew TikTok → @joshnandrew Website → https://joshandrew.org…
In this episode of Conversations , we dive into the tension between being a pioneer and seeking popularity. While pioneering is often romanticized, the reality is that it comes with sacrifices—like walking alone, embracing uncertainty, and facing criticism. We’ll explore how pioneers lead into uncharted territory, often at great personal cost, and why you can't have both popularity and the conviction to break new ground. If you're wondering whether you’re called to be a pioneer or just want the comfort of the crowd, this episode will challenge your perspective on leadership and purpose. 📲 Connect with me for more leadership & faith-driven insights: Instagram → @joshnandrew TikTok → @joshnandrew Website → https://joshandrew.org…

In this episode, I break down one of the most misunderstood ideas in church leadership: honor. I’m talking about what it really means—and what it doesn’t. A lot of people confuse honor with silence, control, or blind loyalty. That’s not it. I share five things honor is and five things it absolutely isn’t. We get into character, identity, and how to challenge authority the right way. Just because you’re not in charge doesn’t mean you’re called to be quiet. This is for pastors, church staff, and anyone who wants to lead with integrity, not manipulation. 📲 Connect with me for more leadership & faith-driven insights: Instagram → @joshnandrew TikTok → @joshnandrew Website → https://joshandrew.org…

In this raw and honest episode of Conversations , I’m speaking directly to pastors, church leaders, and creatives battling imposter syndrome, burnout, or the constant pull to be impressive over obedient.

Whether you're a church planter, pastor, or entrepreneur, you’ve probably felt the pressure to grow fast, reach more, launch the next thing. But here’s the truth—scale won’t fix your weak spots.
