Top Highlights

“What motivates you to want to lead and teach people? Desire to help people, a sense of duty, enjoyment of leadership, money, the pleasure of teaching people, peer pressure? For Christian leaders, the primary answer must be love. Love is the greatest motivating power in the universe. It is at the heart of the gospel. God’s love moved him to give his Son for our salvation. Love is the indispensable motivating force for all Christian service. Leadership is to be motivated by a threefold love: Christ’s love for us, our love for Christ and love for others.” (Page 27)

“When our leadership is motivated by love for God and Christ, we are most pleasing to God and most effective with people. You may be a highly skilled public speaker and a dynamic leader, but if you don’t love God first and foremost, you will not be pleasing to him.” (Page 30)

“love always seeks to provide loved ones’ needs and the greatest need people have is for the Word of God.” (Page 126)

“‘No, I distinctly remember forgetting it.’ Love makes a point of forgetting wrongs suffered.” (Page 75)

“‘Nothing sets a Christian so much out of the devil’s reach than humility.’^{4” (Page 56)}
