How to Respond to God’s Call: A Guide to Trustworthy Leadership - Dr. Jo Anne Lyon and Amber Jones

2023-08-15

On this Episode of GraceStory Podcast Amber takes over for a conversation with Dr. Lyon. Dr. Lyon's lived wisdom is a deep well that could never be completely tapped; and, her humble authenticity keeps her approachable. For those unfamiliar with Dr. Jo Anne Lyon, her history is one of deep dedication, pioneer work on many fronts, and a testament to a life transformed by the infilling of the Holy Spirit when we are committed to living out His presence. Dr. Lyon is a mom to four, has served on both national and international human crisis forums and initiatives, was the first female district superintendent of The Wesleyan Church – serving for 8 years. She has a heart of compassion that is demonstrated in the practical ways she serves, leads, and impacts the kingdom globally. Dr Lyon has a heart for today’s emerging leaders. In this conversation with GraceStory Founder, Amber Jones, Dr. Lyon says that it is foundational that our starting point as leaders in the faith community is to be based wholly on being filled with the Holy Spirit. From there, we understand that God trusts us with a mission unique to each of us. That it is such a beautiful, humble honor to represent Him. Dr. Lyon said, “He calls us into difficult places because He trusts me, he trusts you…to be able to move into these areas.”
