In this powerful and personal episode, Andy Mason shares what he's been hearing from God after returning from an international journey of listening, learning, and leading. From setting up a new strategic base to hosting their first worship night in their new home, Andy dives into themes of transition, leadership failure, spiritual drift, and the critical call to consecration.

He explores insights from the books How the Mighty Fall by Jim Collins and Necessary Endings by Dr. Henry Cloud—and how these principles overlay with the repeated leadership failures we see in Scripture, particularly in the life of Samson.

The episode culminates in a gripping and imaginative retelling of Samson’s story—what could have happened if he had chosen humility before humiliation. It’s an invitation to stop pretending, cut your own hair, and walk boldly in obedience with God.
