Spiritual leadership may seem to many men like a daunting task, but you don't have to be smarter or more holy than others to lead.
Key Points:
- What spiritual leadership isn’t: You’re not better or more valuable than your wife. You’re not a despot in the home. You don’t have to become a preacher or the Bible answers guy.
- What spiritual leadership is: You care. You serve. You have a vision. You take responsibility. You take initiative.
- If you need help finding ways to grow in your faith or to apply biblical principles to your life and marriage, the resources at pursueGOD.org can help you get started today.
Quote This:
1 Corinthians 11:3 But there is one thing I want you to know: The head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.
