  • The Ministry of Presence | Coached by Truth
    Aug 25 2026

    In this episode of Coached by Truth, Jim Kirkland explores the ministry of presence and why sometimes the most meaningful thing we can offer another person is simply our full attention.

    When someone is hurting, struggling, or trying to make sense of a difficult situation, our first instinct may be to offer advice, solve the problem, or find the right words. But effective ministry often begins by slowing down, listening well, and being fully present with the person God has placed before us.

    Through practical Christian coaching and biblical principles, this episode will help you consider how well you listen, whether you are truly present with others, and how giving someone your undivided attention can become a powerful expression of care, compassion, and ministry.

  • You Don't Have to Do Everything Yourself | Coached by Truth
    Aug 18 2026

    In this episode of Coached by Truth, Jim Kirkland explores an important leadership lesson: you do not have to do everything yourself.

    Effective leaders do more than complete tasks. They develop people. That means learning when to delegate, how to coach others through the learning process, and how to resist taking responsibilities back simply because you could do them faster yourself.

    Through practical Christian coaching and biblical principles, this episode will help you think about where you may be carrying responsibilities that someone else could learn to handle, and how developing others can strengthen your ministry, team, and leadership.
