Leaders
July 21, 2017
Research shows that senior leaders and celebrities share some common characteristics beyond common folks. They are more cold, callous, and ruthless AND more manipulative and narcissistic. Harsh discovery.
Christ followers who are leaders and in the lime light need not follow that trend. Jesus is the perfect example of servant hearted leadership. Examples in Scripture like Moses, Joshua, the apostles, and Stephen, while imperfect, led with courage focused on God’s direction, serving the people God entrusted to them.
They were human, tempted, messed up and course corrected because their focus was God first, not self. Generous rather than greedy, teachable and accepted reproof.
We are told to pray for our government leaders. Let’s pray even more fervently for our Spiritual leaders.
