About this listen

In this episode of Let’s Be True, I sit down with John Turner, Associate Pastor at Oakwood Church of God, to discuss the vital but often overlooked role of a utility player in church leadership. John shares his journey into ministry, what it means to serve in multiple capacities, and how he helps implement the pastor’s vision while balancing different responsibilities.


We talk about the skills and mindset needed to thrive in a support role, the challenges of aligning ministries toward a common goal, and the tension between administrative work and spiritual leadership. John also offers practical advice for those who feel unseen in their ministry roles and how churches can better equip and appreciate their staff.


If you're in ministry—or just want to understand the importance of behind-the-scenes leadership—this episode is for you!


Listen now and learn how to serve effectively while supporting your pastor’s vision.
