. . .  some thoughts on what it is to be effective in Christian leadership and ministry. 

"Now these are the gifts Christ gave to the church: apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers. Their responsibility is to equip God's people to do His work and build up the church, the body of Christ." - Ephesians 4:11-12, New Living Translation

note: "sin in the camp" story is actually in Joshua, not during David's life.
