Empowering Christian Leadership
What does being a leader mean to you? I think of Christ washing the disciples feet and am reminded that it’s therefore sometimes about doing the dull jobs with a willing spirit….as for the Lord. How does that work when we don’t feel our gifts are being so well used? I wonder what Jesus thought as he washed his disciples feet. I imagine that he was fully present and fully committed in love to the task before him and to showing His disciples how he wanted them to serve one another.
If those we lead were asked the effect we had on them, I wonder what they would say? In a Bill Johnson DVD today, I was reminded that we are to elevate others’ and cultivate a culture of honour. Let’s highlight people’s strengths and allow them to live in freedom, fully using their own creativity and resourcefulness. Please feel free to share any relevant thoughts and stories here for other readers to share.
