Christian Leadership

The Good Shepherd is a wonderful and poetic image of a God who loves us and leads us. To be a Christian leader, we have to learn to follow. Following the Good Shepherd is the only thing that will make us good leaders for others in the end. When we focus on him, we love more deeply, offer peace in the midst of anxiety, and lead confidently, even into the unknown.
