Leadership Wisdom from the First Century


These days, a leader has plenty to worry about.  We have reasons to be discouraged or depressed.

I got a very fresh insight on the proper demeanor of leadership from Paul's letter to the Philippians.

Paul had plenty to worry about--plenty of reasons to be depressed.  But listen to this summary of what he wrote:

ALWAYS be full of joy. Let everyone see that you're considerate.

Don't worry about anything. Instead pray about everything.

Tell God what you need. Thank him for all he's done.

Then you will experience God's peace. His peace will guard your heart and mind.

Now, how's that for strong, timely leadership counsel?
