Must Hear
If you are a boss or a leader of a company, this podcast is an absolute must. I went in listening to this very skeptical and have learned so much over the past year.

Super well rounded
Craig does a great job of considering all sides to leadership. He also does a great job of making universal truths become obvious as opposed to only hitting areas that “only” Christians would relate to. Such an awesome podcast!

Disappointed by recent guest
I have so much respect for Craig and this podcast but am so disappointed by this podcast having Dave R on as a recent guest. Dave is not someone who should be promoted as an appropriate person for financial and business advice. Just dig a little and see that the disfunction in his organization is rampant and the total ignorance of the reality of the financial challenges most people go through and then shames them for (ie making fun of a caller for paying the average cost of child care) is appalling. Bad choice guys. Super disappointing.

Craig, one developmental note…
Truly jam packed value communicated in each episode! I just finished listening to the episode about mastering hard conversations, and Craig, I’m saying this because I care about your mission and I want your podcast to be even more impactful - one developmental feedback is this: please speak clearly until the end. Often when you’re wrapping up an episode there’s a powerful message at the end, but it often sounds like mumble jumble - all of your words have weight they each have an impact, so I’d like to be able to hear and understand what it is you are saying, even at the end of the episode. I thank you for creating the space to leave feedback… and for pouring into us (commercial free) and full of utmost value. GBU.

Message Awesome, Marketing Overkill
I love Jesus and I’m a huge fan of Craig and his church, but it feels like 60% of this content is marketing. Focus on the value.

Thank You
My family and I began attending Life.Church in Wellington, FL after we visited their fall festival. The fall festival was such a warm, welcoming, inclusive, and encouraging event. We were welcomed with open arms, food, beverages, amazing staff and volunteers, and our 11 year old daughter had a blast with all the different activities for the children.
The first Sunday we attended, I was in awe of the music. It is so loud, so powerful, so inspirational, so convicting, and the members of the band are so deeply passionate when they sang.
When the sermon started, I was taken by surprise that the message was delivered on a big screen by Pastor Craig, and not the lead pastor of this location.
Although surprised, I was very intrigued as so many are, by Pastor Craig’s delivery and effectiveness of his message.
When we left that sermon, my wife and I looked at each other and said “We are coming back.” I looked at my daughter and she was smiling and said, “Daddy I love it, let’s come here every Sunday.”
As a father in the midst of learning to lead my family through faith, that was all I needed to hear and we now attend every Sunday.
Since attending Life.Church, I’ve learned more about Pastor Craig and discovered his leadership podcast.
While listening to some episodes here and there, I have now begun to start my day at 4:30 AM, with 45 minutes of worship in the Bible App, followed by a 2 mile walk listening to most recent and prior episodes.
My core values are so aligned with Pastor Craig’s perspective, both spiritually and personally, and I am really thankful to have learned about Life.Church and this Podcast.
My family and I appreciate the work, dedication, selflessness and sacrifices that are made to consistently deliver his message in such a powerful way.
Thank you Pastor Craig for being the leader you are, and bringing your leadership to millions of others like myself, you make us better.
God Bless 🙏

Mission critical
This podcast is an amazing tool for leaders. It is highly concentrated for such a short amount of time. They don’t overproduce the episodes, and I appreciate that they don’t try to make too many episodes to quickly. It keeps the information relevant and it doesn’t feel like they are just grabbing at the air trying to come up with something to talk about.

Straight to the point, always valuable
Craig’s delivery is high quality. If you’re looking for a podcast that aligns with the Bible and gives you practical tips to being a better leader, this is it!

Grateful
These episodes have helped guide me through running a small business. I own a small woman owned business. We perform general contracting. I have no background in business or marketing. Only civil engineering, and hands on construction. So listening to Craig has really helped me as a leader. He has also helped me work my 2 employees into leadership roles for the company. I am grateful for the information.

Waited Too Long
Like many, being busy kept me from taking advantage of the incredible material Craig shares. Or maybe it was just low IQ. All I know is that when I got involved revitalizing a church these podcasts turned to gold for me. Every word and sentence is measured. Now I’m in overdrive listening and processing.

Love this Podcast!
I am always blessed by the highly practical and God honoring truths and strategies shared by Pastor Craig. I use them in my professional and personal life. I know I am better for it and so are those I lead. I also appreciate the concise duration as it is an easy listen on my commute.

Better leaders every time
Every episode makes me a better leader! One of the tightest yet most helpful podcasts I listen to. Pastor Craig makes a great use of the time you give him.

Thank you for educating about leadership
The podcast about hard conversations was spot on. Changing the mindset that hard conversations are not hard, but wonderful developmental conversations. Thank you for breaking down old barriers for leaders and helping them develop new ones. I look forward to hearing next podcast

Best Leadership Podcast!
I’ve been listening to Craig’s leadership podcast since 2018. It’s changed my leadership at work and at home in ways I never could have imagined. I’m beyond grateful for the incredible impact Craig’s teaching has had on my life - both through this podcast and through his ministry at Life.Church. From my head, heart, and soul - I’m grateful.

Every Leader Should Listen
Whether you share the Faith or not, every leader should listen to this show. I can’t help but to tell all of my friends how much they’d benefit if they listened just like it has benefited me. Keep up the good work!

I love this show! Such great information!

My #1 leadership podcast
I first found Craig, almost 20 years ago when I was lost and did not know who I was in Jesus Christ! Since the day I accepted Jesus Christ, he’s gone from my pastor to one of my favorite Christ centered leadership coaches from afar!
Thank you for being the man that God is created you to be and who was there all alone before you knew who you were in Jesus Christ! Thank you for the pastor and the man, the husband and the father and grandfather that you are. May God continue to bless you in Jesus name.

So Much Wisdom
I am so thankful for this podcast and all its leadership principles, values, and wisdom is gives! Every episode I walk away with so much, and I always look forward to a new one!
AgentNemitz
A leader for leaders
I often feel completely inadequate as a leader in my organization. Podcasts like Criag’s have helped me grow in my leadership tremendously. My favorite aspect of Criag’s podcast is that there is a biblical foundation for his messaging, his thoughts are filtered through the gospel. The business world is a dark place so being able to learn in the light is exactly what I need to move forward with my God-given purpose.

Great teaching and inspiration
I love Craig’s passion for leadership and his guests with different perspectives. I’ve learned from someone as young as Sadie Robertson and enjoy her views to many others who are closer to my age but offer different experiences and insights. Thank you Craig for exposing us to great leaders and motivated upward thinking people. Many favorite guests but really enjoyed Josh Axe, Priscilla Shirar, Sadie and Pastor Steven. Keep up the great work of challenging us to take our thinking to new heights!

This is a great tool!
I have listened to all of these episodes in the last year or so, and there is so much here. I wish I had the time to go back and study each one. The material is such a great tool in leadership. Put the lessons and questions into practice with your team, you won’t regret it!

Craig respects your time each and every episode is full of so much insight, knowledge and wisdom. I have learned so much just from the few episodes i've listened to. Keep up the great work and God bless you!!!!

I was so disappointed to see you endorsing this chiropractor who fraudulently refers to himself as a physician. It is dangerous to embrace someone who sells non-evidenced based medical advice, as so many people trust in your guidance as our pastor. As a medical doctor, I fear how many patients will not trust the sound medical advice of their physicians due to pod casts like this.
I pray that you would consider your influence on your congregation, and far reaching influence to others with the leaders you choose to follow and support.

I’ve been listening for a while and love the practical nature of Craig’s teachings. Episode 152 really hit home and I felt compelled to leave a review. This is certainly a podcast I look forward to listening to and incorporate takeaways into my own personal Leadership. Enjoy!!

Always looking forward to this
Craig, thank you so much for being a great channel for leadership. As someone currently learning the ropes of leading teams and growing organizations, this has given crucial pointers with balanced view. I’ve gotten two types of advice in my life -
1. be very assertive and you’ll get stuff done!
2. emotional connection leads to organic growth!
And those two seem to be polar opposites and both have pros and cons but you bring very clear and balanced values that I appreciate so much 🙏
May God bless you

Awesome podcast!!!
Dear Craig,
I am a HVAC/refrigeration technician aspiring to one day hopefully become manager.
I got the suggestion to listen to your podcast from my regional manager (my boss’s boss) last fall and finally got caught up listening to all the episodes about 2 weeks ago. I must admit that I am grateful and admire such a large amount of positive and useful content. You speak loud and clear, are very articulate and even repeat yourself often which I find particularly helpful since I am a French Canadian, English not being my native language. Sadly, I couldn’t say the same about every one of your guests, which is the reason why I am writing to you today. In yesterday’s episode with Jamie Kern Lima, I couldn’t understand even half of what she was saying , this time again, same as during her previous interview on your show. I believe this was due to either low quality equipment or poor internet connection but in any case, I was particularly sad to not be able to comprehend that lady, whom I believe has a tremendous amount of knowledge, experience and intelligence to communicate. Thanks to the leader guide though, I still got to catch up on the essential part of her teaching.
In any case, I sincerely am grateful for your amazing work and wanted to take the time to thank you for all the help you bring to me and the whole community. Thank you!

Love listening to the guy who spoke about his regiment of diet and exercise. In addition, solid, skills and leadership. It all starts with self-discipline. I’m not even close these guys, but they give me something to shoot for! Cheers

This is such a great tool for leaders and for the one that would like to improve themselves.
I am a local preacher, a husband to 1 and a father of 3. This podcast has truly helped me in becoming the best leader I can be. The wisdom of the Lord flows through Pastor Craig and it is great!

I love to listen to Craig Groeschels leadership podcasts! And he’s a great interviewer! Love hearing some of the people he chooses to interview. I share almost every one I hear with people inside and outside my people groups.
Wish he could come help our staff grow!

Yes!
Every time I can learn from pastor Craig- I lean in! Whether that’s podcasts, sermons or books- he was clearly intended to lead and teach. As a fellow leadership expert, I’m grateful for everything he pours into me (and others)!
