Welcome to the Carrie Newhoff Leadership Podcast. A podcast all about leadership, change and personal growth.

The goal, to help you lead like never before in your church or in your business and now

your host Carrie Newhoff.

Well hey everybody and welcome to episode 217 of the podcast.

My name is Carrie Newhoff and I hope our time together today

helps you lead like never before.

Well, there's nothing like going back

to the very beginning.

And those of you who've been around for a while know that

episode number one, my guest was Andy Stanley and he's back. He's got a

brand new book called Irresistible. It's all about reclaiming the original Christian faith. I think you're going to find this conversation fascinating and he was extremely generous with his time and we do a deep dive not into just the message of his new book but also talking about how he's responded to the critics and some other personal aspects of leadership.

I think you're going to love this episode and

make sure you check out his new book. In fact we've got something kind of cool

for you that we're going to tell you about at the end. So Andy talks about chapters that got deleted

from the book just for length, and we'll show you

at the end of the podcast, how you can actually

get your hands on one.

So that's always kind of fun.

I don't know about you, but when I watch a movie,

I love the deleted scenes almost as much

as the ones they kept in.

So hang on to the end of the podcast.
