On this episode Jim and Kenny are talking about Generational Collaboration.

Bro. Jim Wideman is a wise man!

If Bro. Jim knows you, he wants your ministry and family to succeed. If he doesn't know you, change that. You'll gain lots of wisdom and insight on how to do ministry and life effectively.

lessons for every leader

Jim has been sharing his leadership lessons and teachings for over 30 years now it’s finally made it’s way to an iTunes podcast! His life truly reflects what he teaches and he teaches what he has lived out. I’m excited that he has made this so easy to share with others.

He has helped me rethink how I lead others and how I live out what I know.
