Let’s face it, most of our thoughts about leadership position leaders as folks on the top.  People who have pushed the envelope and have succeeded against great odds.  Is there anything to say for those who have not gone to the top?  People who for one reason or another are in second place.  In the life of John the Baptist we can’t help noticing that Jesus did not call him to be an Apostle.  In fact, He let him die as a martyr in prison without ever publicly following him.  What’s the place for leadership that’s both humble and deep?
