To Be A Believer Is To Be A Leader


Listen Later

What if leadership isn’t a role you earn but a calling you receive the moment you follow Jesus? We pull on that thread to reveal a practical, Spirit-led vision of leadership that moves beyond checklists and control. Drawing from the Great Commission, Matthew 10, and the early Church in Acts, we unpack why Kingdom leadership embraces risk, faces persecution, and keeps advancing—while management alone often settles for safety and status.

We get real about servant leadership: authority looks like a towel at the table. From the chow line ethos of “lowest rank eats first” to the discipline of demonstrating before you teach, we explore how competence and humility build trust. You’ll hear how leaders release people to try, fail safely, debrief, and improve—while managers cling to control. We also talk about mentoring without the label, with a story of quiet discipleship that beat any marketed ministry program. Multiplication happens when we know our people, ask better questions, and train our successors to do it better than we did.

Another anchor of the conversation is being led by the Holy Spirit in the “dead space” when there’s no clear voice—just a nudge to go where others won’t. Obedience opens doors you can’t plan. We challenge the trap of relevance that compromises the message, and we champion contrast as the real edge of “iron sharpens iron.” Different perspectives refine us, expose blind spots, and strengthen the whole Body. The bottom line: to be a believer is to be a leader—serving with skill, risking with wisdom, and moving with the Spirit.
