What Happens when Men Lead?

On Monday, August 18th we are going to begin our own journey through the wilderness. We live in a day when a lot of time and attention is given to the topic of Leadership. Men like Stephen Covey, Jack Welch and Tom Peters have all written volumes on the subject. Charisma, motivational skills, and time management have all been addressed in great detail.

What really happens when men step up in the church and seek to exemplifiy true "male spiritual leadership?" Not the boardroom style, or charismatic leader that sways multitudes, but true biblical leadership that serves from the foot of the table. Leadership that is immersed in humilty, honor and integrity.

In our time together on Monday mornings we will have a short devotional and discussion on what God seeks in male leadership and we will devote time to prayer and support for one another as we venture out to lead in our homes, churches, community and workplace.

We will begin on Monday, August 18th at 6:30 am and look at a how God shaped Moses to lead a nation out of bondage.

Contextual Ministry

Why is it that a minister or minstry program can be tremendously effective in one location and impotent in another. Churches and preachers are notorious for jumping on the latest trends only to realize that they don't work in their neighborhoods.

The problem comes because many congregations have never stopped to look at their work and ministry in the context of the local community and church. Each congregation has a unique makeup and the community they serve has different needs.

This blog is designed to help congregations and ministers look at their community through new eyes and try to see the opportunities and challenges that God has placed before them in context.
