  <description>Welcome back, friends, to Fishing Without Bait: A Lifetime Without Definitive Expectations.
In Episode 490, Jim Ellermeyer and producer Mike Sorg explore what leadership truly means through the lens of Jesus of Nazareth. From the radical humility and servant leadership he modeled 2,000 years ago to his timeless call for justice and compassion, Jim examines how these teachings apply to the world’s political and social climate today.
This thoughtful conversation covers:
    • How Jesus’s example challenges modern power and ego
    • The moral responsibility of leaders to serve everyone—not just their supporters
    • Why integrity, honesty, and empathy are essential in times of division
    • The enduring wisdom of “Blessed are the peacemakers” and “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also”
Jim also reflects on the story of the Good Samaritan and closes with a reminder that hope—and helping others—remains our greatest prescription.
