A Godly Leader
As you guys know we went to the Student Leadership Conference last week at Southland Christian Camp. The week was amazing and the teaching/preaching sessions were so helpful that I decided to share a little bit of the blessing with you all.
Here are a few nuggets from the Conference.
“To make a difference you have to be different! Mt 5:13-16
The Lord calls us to be two things in these verses-
1. Salt
- Characteristics of Salt
a) Adds Wonderful Flavor
b) Preservative
c) Cleansing Agent
2. Light
- Characteristics of Light
a) Dispels Darkness
b) Guides to the safe path
What does it mean to be different?
Different =
– not the same
– Distinct
– Unlike most others
“The Average is good for Nothing”
“Do others want what you have because of the Difference?”
You can’t change the Character of something by adding more of the same
Leadership is
- Providing Direction or Guidance
- Someone who makes things happen
- The ability to influence someone in a direction you think is important
“Everyone is a leader because we all influence someone!”
Hope these things will be an encouragement to you!
Stay tuned there is more to come!
