Today I’m going to look at “leadership capacity” as a function of strength – strength to carry the responsibilities that we feel called to shoulder.
Mike Breen
Delegation is also the number one development tool you possess as a leader. No amount of education (important), training (also important) or feedback (very important) can substitute for direct responsibility. Emerging leaders need to learn under the yoke of responsibility. Look back at your own growth as a leader to see the truth of [...]

How do we respond when our leaders fail or disappoint us?

David Platt shares what it means to follow Christ and the dangers of being safe.
David Platt
We must not deny or ignore the fact that if we are followers of Jesus Christ living in this world, we are engaged daily in a great spiritual battle.
Scott Rodin
Are you leading in a way that ensures the safekeeping of your own reputation? Are you willing to give it up completely in order to follow Jesus regardless of the cost?
Scott Rodin
God is more concerned with who we are, and who we are becoming in Him, than the work we produce each day.

We are called to be one kingdom people, which means cultivating a holy, reverent fear of God.

I still laugh at when my dad built a birdhouse and put it up in his back yard. Thoughtfully, he stuffed the cute little structure with twigs to help the birds with their nest-building.
