A Word to the Wise from Mac Lake:
One of the most helpful things I’ve discovered studying the life of Jesus in chronological order is not just what He did, but when He did it.
As I’ve studied the timeline of Jesus developing His disciples, I noticed something that has helped shape the way I think about leadership development and it is this:
Jesus started with relationship before responsibility. Because healthy leadership development doesn’t begin with using people. It begins with knowing people.
Who around you has potential that may simply need more intentional connection from you before they’re ready for greater responsibility?
