Defining Leadership

There are scads of definitions of leadership. I like this one for spiritual leadership: "Helping people hear God's voice and obey it." (Blackaby)

Consider this interesting article from Lisa Haneberg. She writes that leadership is just one thing. And she ends with this fascinating compilation of "one thing"s:

"...the one thing is proactivity with a tinge of charisma that feels compelling, is at the service of others, demonstrates ownership of results, targeted to provide the greatest benefit, and that is delivered by someone we trust."

Think about your role as the spiritual leader in your family, and read that again. Good stuff!
