In this episode of the 5 Leadership Questions podcast Todd Adkins talks with Max Lucado, a preaching pastor at Oak Hills Church in San Antonio and world-renowned author of more than 30 books which have sold more than 90 million copies worldwide. For more than 30 years Max has preached hope and restoration to the hurting and discouraged.
