Are you inviting the kind of accountability into your life that leads to real spiritual growth - or are you simply going through the motions?

In this episode, Ben and Lynley Mandrell explore the timeless wisdom of John Wesley’s Holy Club questions and how they can still shape the spiritual lives of modern ministry leaders. Originally crafted for deep self-reflection and community accountability, these questions spark a conversation about the delicate balance between discipline and grace.

Ben and Lynley reflect on the value of asking ourselves tough spiritual questions - not to earn God's favor, but to become more self-aware and intentional in our walk with Christ. They address the potential dangers of drifting into legalism and the importance of tailoring spiritual practices to fit how God uniquely wired each of us. Whether you thrive in structured routines or prefer more fluid rhythms, the episode encourages leaders to pursue accountability in ways that foster authenticity, not guilt. What form of spiritual accountability challenges you to grow while still leaving space for grace?
