Ep 2144: Serving Ministries (Behind the Scenes)

This episode highlights a powerful example of what it looks like to faithfully serve behind the scenes and how God often uses those seasons to prepare someone for something more. Leah Borg shares her journey from supporting a ministry vision for over a decade to ultimately stepping into leadership when the time was right. 

Through her story, you’ll hear how serving others isn’t a lesser calling – it’s often the training ground for greater responsibility. Leah’s experience with Ministry Assistant Services reveals how God weaves purpose into even the most administrative roles, impacting ministries around the world in ways many never see. She also shares how her involvement with American Heritage Girls has shaped her heart for discipling the next generation and living out her faith in everyday leadership. 

What you’ll hear in the episode: 

  • Leah’s faith journey and how it shaped her path into ministry work 

  • The value and calling of being in a support role 

  • What 12 years of faithful service prepared her for 

  • How she stepped into leadership when the founders transitioned out 

  • Stories of impact in supporting diverse ministries 

  • Encouragement for those who feel called to serve behind the scenes 

Leah’s story is a reminder that no role is small when it’s surrendered to God. Whether you’re leading from the front or faithfully supporting from the background, your work matters – and it may be preparing you for something you don’t yet see. 

If you’re part of a ministry that could use support, or if you’ve ever felt a pull toward serving in a meaningful, behind-the-scenes role, Leah’s work through Ministry Assistant Services is worth exploring. And for those investing in young women, her involvement with American Heritage Girls offers a glimpse into another impactful way to lead and disciple.
