Preaching Under Pressure: The COST Every Pastor Must Face | Ed Young & Levi Lusko

In this episode of the C3 Leadership Podcast, Ed Young sits down with Pastor ‪@LeviandJennieLusko‬ lead pastor of ‪@freshlifechurch‬, for a candid conversation about calling, courage, and conviction in ministry. They discuss the weight of self-leadership, the discipline of preaching fresh messages week after week, and the urgency of standing boldly for truth in a culture that resists it. Levi and Ed also reflect on the recent martyrdom of Charlie Kirk, the historic role of persecution in sparking revival, and the rising hunger for Jesus among the next generation. With personal stories, leadership insights, and even a few fishing tales, this episode is equal parts challenging and refreshing.
