TGC 532 – Lessons in Leadership: What Pastors Can Learn from Special Operations

Lessons in Leadership: What Pastors Can Learn from Special Operations

Fr. Coleman Geraci



What does pastoral ministry have in common with Special Operations? More than you might think. In this episode, we explore how the training, mindset, and mission-focus of Green Berets can sharpen the way pastors lead, serve, and endure. From clarity under pressure to sacrificial service, from team-building to mission-first thinking, elite soldiers model habits that mirror the pastoral calling in surprising ways. We’ll unpack how spiritual shepherds can lead with greater courage, discipline, and purpose—not by becoming militant, but by embracing the seriousness and sacrifice of their holy calling. If you're a pastor or just someone who cares about strong, faithful ministry, this episode will challenge and encourage you to lead with resolve, discipline, and humility.
