Episode Title: Dig the Ditches — Preparing for the Miracle

In this session from Pastor CT Townsend, we dive into a timeless leadership principle drawn from 2 Kings 3:16–17: God sends the miracle, but we prepare the capacity to hold it.

In this episode, Pastor CT unpacks why every church already has systems—whether they were intentionally designed or accidentally inherited. From assimilation to discipleship, from volunteer culture to pastoral health, Pastor CT challenges leaders to stop waiting for signs and start digging the “ditches” that make room for supernatural movement.

You’ll learn:

• Why obedience and preparation always precede provision

• How systems don’t create revival but they sustain it

• The difference between moments that excite people and movement that develops people

• The five essential “ditches” every church must build to see long-term growth

• How Victory Baptist Church structures ministry to help people know God, discover purpose, and live the life of victory

This is a call to action for every pastor, leader, and church builder: Dig your ditches. Create capacity. Prepare for God to move.

Because when the water comes…will your church be ready to hold it?

In this powerful message from the 2026 LEAD Conference, Pastor Kenny Baldwin preaches from Psalm 5, where David pleads with God to make his way straight in the middle of opposition. Pastor Baldwin walks us through David’s desperate cry for help, his confidence in God, his clear plan for living, the enemies he faced, and the specific requests he brought before the Lord. This encouraging message reminds us that when our path feels uncertain, God can still lead us step by step.

In this message from the 2026 LEAD Conference at Victory Baptist Church, Pastor Jonathon McNeese shows how the story of Samson actually points us to Jesus — a truth we often miss because we focus more on Samson than on Christ. Pastor McNeese also encourages us to live in a way that points others to Jesus. This clear, practical message will help you see Christ in Scripture and reflect Him in your daily life!
