What an honor.
In this conversation, I got to sit with one of the greats, Bishop Paul S. Morton, and what he shared was honest, wise, funny, healing, and deeply needed.
We talked about the real secret to longevity in marriage. The weight of leading people for decades. What can a ministry do to your mind if you never slow down? How his 1998 breakdown became a breakthrough. Why balance matters. Why fellowship still matters. And what it looks like to love your children enough to let them fully become who God called them to be.
We also talked about Bishop Paul S. Morton’s strict upbringing, the leadership journey that helped shape him into the leader of Full Gospel for so many years, and his heart posture when PJ Morton decided to step into mainstream music.
This wasn’t just a conversation about church. This was a conversation about being human. About pressure. About legacy. About healing. And about having a real heart for people.
If you’ve ever carried too much…
If you’ve ever tried to be strong for everybody…
If you’ve ever needed grace while figuring life out…
This one is for you.
