John Maxwell famously said that everything rises and falls on leadership. Whether you are talking about individuals, families, churches, businesses, or nations, the ability to cast the right vision and motivate towards its realization sets the trajectory for every area our lives.

In light of the vital importance of leadership, we here at Theology Along the Way are devoting the entire month of posts to this topic. We’ll examine the topic through biblical, practical, theological, and historical lenses. We pray that these posts will help your leadership in whatever way you are called upon practice it – whether in leading yourself, others, or whole organizations.

“Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith; if service, in our serving; the one who teaches, in his teaching; the one who exhorts, in his exhortation; the one who contributes in generosity; the one who leads, with zeal; the one who does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness.” (Romans 12:6-8)

May we lead with zeal as God’s grace works within us for the glory of His name and the good of all people.
