God desires for us to grow to become all he has created us to be. Jesus said that those who believe in him would do more than he had done. God sees us as we are meant to be and so really desires growth for us.
And we cannot grow outside community. But for communities to function well, it is important that leadership is in place because where there is poor leadership, people perish. Communities, countries, churches and even families rise and fall with leadership.
Leading well is, like Jesus, leadership that is submitted to the rule and reign of God. Constantly seeking God’s heart for people in your charge. And like Jesus, leadership that is secure enough to give leadership away for people to grow.
