Another Lesson for Leaders

One of the challenges for a leader is NOT to spend the majority of time solving problems, but rather modeling LIFE as Christ intended it and to cast the vision for where we need to be going together.

Too many of us are lost in the size of our task, or the lack of resources and insufficient wisdom to accomplish the assigned work. We must keep our eyes fixed on Jesus if we are to maintain our own balance and joy…and to encourage our people to do the same.

Jesus said, “I am the way the truth and the life.”

Eugene Peterson’s comments on John 14:6: “Most Christians are experts on THE TRUTH; most are dropouts in THE WAY and so most miss out on THE LIFE.”
