“A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.” –John C. Maxwell

 From “The Human Condition: A User’s Manual” by Arnold Kunst

Don’t ever underestimate the power and breadth of your leading. Whether you like it or not, whether you realize it or not, you’re being watched – pretty much from all sides, pretty much at all times. Maybe with the unparalleled unobtrusiveness and uncanny accuracy of an oh, so quiet child who drinks in what his idol of a father/sister/uncle/mother is, filtering out the froth of what he/she says. Just like you did when you were a kid.  Let’s assume you believe in the primacy of Scripture: trust me,they may well read Scripture in no other place but in the person you are.
