Christian Leadership Ethics

As we know a leader is suppose to inspire, guide, influence or be a pace setter to their followers. But today we all want to become leaders, not to positively influence or guide, but to enrich ourselves.

However in Christian leadership from the Holy Bible passage above, it is the life first; a man that can carry God into his business. Christ first in the leader, before anything else. Meaning that in the issue of being born-again, the inner must correspond to the outside. Until you see your position in leadership as a call to serve, you are on a path of self-service. The reason the church is weeping today is that, we have placed the wrong men in leadership. In Christian leadership rights and privileges are meant for the followers.

Lesson Learnt

Directly or indirectly our life’s is modeling someone’ life; so we must dare to live by example.

Prayer

Lord Jesus, please help me to carry you into all my personal business and also save our churches from wolf in sheep clothing (Amen)

Everybody Should Win:The need to Learn how to Resolve Conflict

“Two are better than one, because they have good return for their labour” Eccl. 4:9 “Make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord” Hebrews 12:14 As a development consultant with some specialty in conflict management, working in the space for over a decade now, I can confirm that indeed life is inevitable without conflicts. But how we manage the process is key. The Bible references above reminds of the benefits we get from working together and also living in peace and above all the spiritual benefits. Living in peace facilitates holy living, which in turn makes us to see the Lord, in everything we do. This article will be a form of review of Gary Chapman’s book “Everybody Wins: Guide to Solving Conflicts without Arguing” (if you can please get a copy for yourself). The goal of everyone, couples or people in relationship should be to resolve conflict without arguing. We must first establish before proceeding ...

Prayer Mission Statement IV

Acts 10:1-8 “He and all his family were devout and God fearing, he gave generously to those in need and prayed regularly” v 2. We go a step further in our family prayer series, before we round up it up with the next post by His grace. The suggestion in part IV is to formulate a family prayer mission statement, our praying should focus on our mission statement. Remember some couples of weeks back, we shared the issue of vision and mission statement together and through the scripture, we agreed that without a vision/mission statement people perish, people are stagnant or have no direction at all. Like said yesterday that as a family there is need to have or know the purpose and plan of God for our family. The statement could be written or not, but it gives your family direction. For Cornelius, he and his family knew they were meant to help the poor and pray fervently. They never used their position as a prominent military family to intimidate people. Their statement ...
