Here, we believe you are at your best when you allow God to cut away what’s getting in His way, so He can move through you in powerful, new ways. ”The Leader” refers to Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit, who guides every believer. ”The Cut” is about allowing the Holy Spirit to precisely remove the ”flesh” – those things in our lives that hinder His movement. Just as the Old Testament marked God’s people with physical circumcision, the New Testament calls for a circumcision of the heart. Join us weekly for new episodes, where we pray the Spirit of God speaks directly to you about that week’s topic. From past experiences to practical tips to cheat codes in life, lean into the ‘cuts’ each week for Biblical principles and practical takeaways that you can apply to become the person God created you to be.

It’s time to recognize that there are \"giants\" standing in the way of your promise. In this episode of The Leader's Cut, Preston Morrison pulls from the life of Joshua to deliver an essential list of “Be’s\" for this year. This is a wartime manual for the one who refuses to settle for the conventional path. In this episode, we’re unpacking: Why bravery is the literal price of admission for the blessings you’re praying for. (And why the success of your dreams is usually on the other side of your greatest failures). How to walk with the strength of a tamed stallion—meekness that is actually power under control. Why playing with your own playbook is the fastest way to hit a ceiling. We’ll discuss how to identify the unconventional wisdom of the Holy Spirit that makes the world think you’re crazy—until you win. How to silence the lie that \"it can't happen through me,” and how we can parter with the Holy Spirit to accomplish what He wants to do. Why God uses a process to grow you before He gives you the “gift”— hint: it’s all about preparation for stewardship. If you’re tired of running from fear and you’re ready to start running toward the fight, this episode is your marching orders. It’s time to battle obediently.","meta_description":"Let’s be honest—the battle isn’t just on the way; it’s here. It’s time to recognize that there are \"giants\" standing in the way of your promise.
