Leadership/DiscipleshipDiscipleship

Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day, teach him how to fish and he will eat for a lifetime.   Give a man the Word and he will be encouraged for a day, teach a man how to study the Word and he will be encouraged for a life time.

God does not call the qualified, he qualifies the called.

Great  leaders who can effectively  lead God’s people, are like eagles, they don’t flock together in bunches, they are not many of them, you will find them only one at a time.

Godly leaders accept the blame, while fleshly leaders  pass the buck. Godly leaders   accept the blame but share the credit.  Godly leaders rarely accuse or excuse;  fleshly leaders always accuse and excuse.
