“Christian leadership should include integrity, honesty, compassion, diplomacy, perception, common sense, and forgiveness. Serving as a Christian leader involves servant leadership, which is a radical commitment to their follower’s life that requires acting in love no matter what it costs that leader.”

“Jesus served as the supreme example of good Christian leadership through servant-hood, humility, taking risks, sharing responsibilities with others, and building a team. He placed the needs of others ahead of His own. He wasn’t judgmental and definitely wasn’t hypocritical.”

“Unlike the uneducated Christian followers from centuries ago, the typical Christian today has a particularly high level of suspicion of organized religion, including an acute sensitivity to hypocrisy. Leaders who think otherwise today won’t lead many.”

“Christian ethical decisions should be based upon personal honor, interpersonal relationships with others including non-Christians, and moral implications of the decisions. Anything less than this violates the teachings of Jesus.”

“Many Christian religions tend to make people feel worthless and broken. Instead, they should be spiritually uplifting and enriching.”

“Regrettably, many Christians support the church’s shame-based culture of manipulation, embarrassment, and disgrace to get what they want, which is to gain followers, power, influence, and obedience.”

“Being a Christian isn’t about the rules but about the relationship we have with Jesus.”
