How Leaders Lose Their Way — A Conversation with Peter Greer
Episode 391
Sunday, 19 April, 2026

Leadership failures rarely happen all at once. More often, they begin quietly—with small compromises, hurried lives, and a gradual drift away from the presence of God. In this episode, Alan talks with Peter Greer, president and CEO of HOPE International and coauthor of the new book How Leaders Lose Their Way. Drawing from the biblical story of Solomon and years of experience working with leaders around the world, Peter explores why even sincere and capable leaders can slowly drift from their calling. Together, Alan and Peter discuss the subtle forces that pull leaders off course—including achievement, isolation, and the “need for speed”—and the spiritual practices that help leaders stay rooted in Christ and finish well. In this episode, you’ll discover: Why leadership failure rarely happens suddenly What the life of Solomon reveals about leadership drift How hurry quietly erodes a leader’s soul Why isolation makes leaders vulnerable to losing their way Spiritual practices that help leaders stay close to Jesus Whether you are leading a church, a team, a ministry, or a business, this conversation offers wisdom for staying grounded in Christ and leading from a deeper place of presence.
