"Do You Have the Heart of a Leader? A Saul & David Case Study | Full Episode 13 | Power & Truth Podcast

"To whom much is given, much is required." Luke 12:48

What kind of leader are you? Too often there are leaders who have skills and experience for a particular task but they lack the heart posture and integrity required to be an effective leader.  

In this episode I discuss aspects of servant leadership, what that should look like, and the ways that our Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ has been the blueprint and the inspiration for that term. 

I use Saul and David, in the bible as an example of a leader who failed in his role as King due to his jealousy and disobedience, over and over again as well as the way that he eventually turned on someone he initially had a heart to mentor (David). Saul ended up being rejected by God due to his mismanagement of a role he'd been given. And his jealousy over David's talents and skills led to him trying to kill him, despite David never having any negative intentions towards him. 

This dynamic plays out in corporate settings and ministries where leaders try to sabotage and stamp out the light in their subordinates instead of trying to cultivate leadership in the members of their teams.  

Take a listen, I hope it shines a light and motivates leaders and aspiring leaders to do regular check ins with themselves and with God to make sure that their leadership is in alignment with God's design, to avoid blocking their own blessings through their treatment of others. 

The bulk of this message is found in 1 Samuel, read the whole book.

Stay encouraged!  Keep growing and striving!
