About this listen

What happens when a leader replaces Jesus at the center of someone’s faith?

In this episode of Beyond the Numbers, Josh explores the hidden danger of leader centered faith— and why faith built on people eventually cracks. Through personal stories and honest reflection, we unpack how misplaced devotion forms, why it feels like discipleship, and what happens when leaders fall or disappoint.

You’ll hear about:

  • Faith deconstruction that begins with devotion, not doubt
  • How pastors unintentionally become idols
  • The difference between discipleship and dependency
  • Why healthy leadership always points past itself
  • How to rebuild faith after church hurt or leadership failure

This episode is for pastors, ministry leaders, and anyone wrestling with faith after disappointment in the church.
