O.k., seems like there's more and more talk going 'round about the whole leadership thing - particularly church leadership. Two things are striking me as ironic here . . .
1. We're engaging this important topic during the same week as an
important church leader's death is being mourned by many millions around the world. How do events in the global Church impact our current discussion, even though many of us are in a different stream?
2. In the midst of all our critical talk about the focus we place on leaders, it looks like we're still focusing on the leaders. Is it possible that in order to regain proper balance in our leaders we need to actually spend more time talking about, and especially
with the people we lead?
