In the opening episode of Healthy Leaders, Holy Limits, Mark and Brian lay the theological foundation for the series by naming the exhaustion many leaders carry quietly and faithfully. Drawing on Jesus’ example in Mark 1:32–39, they explore how limits are not a failure of faith, but a gift that clarifies calling, protects love, and makes long-term faithfulness possible.

Healthy Leaders, Holy Limits is a formation-focused Revive podcast series for pastors and church leaders navigating burnout, boundaries, and sustainability in ministry. Through Scripture, lived experience, and trusted voices from across the Church and beyond, this series explores what it means to lead faithfully for the long haul—without confusing urgency with obedience.

In this second episode of VITAL stories, Canon Mark interviews the Rev. Cedric and Sarah Benner from Bishop Cummins Reformed Episcopal Church in Catonsville, MD. Since engaging with Canon Mark through Revive, there has been steady growth, engaging ministry, and breakthrough, despite significant challenges. Both of them share their story of revitalization and show how life continues in the ACNA at the local level through prayer and determination for the sake of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

In this Pentecost interview, Canon Mark interviews the Rev. Clancy Nixon, Director of Renew, a ministry of Anglican Revitalization Ministries. Rev. Clancy talks about the history of Anglican renewal, his own experience as an Anglican priest pursuing ministry through the Holy Spirit's power, and the importance of renewal for the health and growth of the local Anglican church.
