Pastor’s Corner:
Christian Leaders
(Part 2)
Biblical Leadership is Personal
By Pastor Ted White


Paul took the time to know people and the people he spent time with got to personally know him as well. Unfortunately, many leaders do not get to know people within the church they pastor. That was not the case with Paul.


In I Thessalonians 2:5-14 we can see many areas where the people really knew Paul. In these verses “you” is used on an average of 2 times each verse. Here are a few things within this passage that the Thessalonians knew about Paul. They knew:


· He never used flattery
· He did not cover up greed
· He was not looking for man’s praise
· He was not looking to be a burden to them
· He was gentle among them
· He was like a mother caring among them
· He greatly loved them
· He delighted to share the gospel with them
· He delighted to share his life with them
· He held them dear
· He toiled while with them
· He had hardship while with them
· He worked night and day
· He lived holy among them
· He lived righteously among them
· He lived blamelessly among them
· He dealt with them as a father
· He encouraged them
· He comforted them
· He urged them to live godly lives
· He was thankful for them


As a Christian Leader, how well do you know those you are leading? This is not just for leadership in a local church though. Each member of the Body of Christ, the Church is to develop healthy relationships with each other and encourage each other (Hebrews 10:24-25) even more as the Lord’s return continues to draw closer.


Want to trust Jesus? He loves you more than any other possibly could. Go to www.newhopenorthwood.com or call 942-7729. To find peace with God www.billygraham.org/SH_StepsToPeace.asp or www.simplysharejesus.com/
