THE SURPRISING SIDE OF LEADERSHIP

Servants of Jesus are not to be motivated by the lure of control or power, or by the need to fill a personality self-worth deficit-disorder. Beware of those dark sides of leadership. Surprisingly, a true leader finds joy and fulfillment in empowering and equipping others so they can contribute in service – you can read about it in Ephesians 4:11-13, Mark 10:35-45, and John 13:1-17. The freedom/courage to be a servant-leader like Jesus, who stooped to wash feet, comes from being secure in your mission, and in your identity as a child of God.
