About this sermon
In this episode, I sit down with Jon Acuff—pastor’s kid turned marketing pro, New York Times bestselling author, speaker, and creative coach—to talk leadership, creativity, and finishing what you start. Jon shares his journey from growing up in Massachusetts to launching “Stuff Christians Like,” and building his own company outside Nashville. We also dive into his upcoming book Procrastination Proof (April 2026) and why procrastination is often a solution—just not a helpful one—especially in a world powered by the distraction industry. Plus, we cover: •Why some leaders stop asking questions (isolation + insecurity) •What it’s like growing up as a pastor’s kid •A memorable definition of creativity: “a wild mind and a disciplined eye” •Practical communication tips and how to make ideas usable “on a Tuesday” 👇 What part of the conversation hit you most? #JohnAcuff #Procrastination #Leadership #Creativity #Communication #PublicSpeaking #ChurchLeadership ------ Pastor Ed Young is the senior pastor of Fellowship Church based in the DFW Metroplex, he is also an author, and conference speaker noted for his creative communication style.
