Influence

Dear church leaders,
Leadership is not so much your ability to influence others, as it is that others notice the influence of God’s Word and Spirit on you. It is not so much that you are able to get others to follow you, as it is that it is obvious others know who you are following.

    A friend of mine and I were talking about leadership the other day. She is having that old run in of an older Christian boss confusing leadership with dominance. Not all Christian men do this and alot of women do it. I like your definition of “the influence of God’s word and Spirit on” the person who is to lead.
    Love it!
