Practical leadership lessons from the book of proverbs?
and how this can be applied to modern christian organizations/churches…….does anybody know of good books/websites/articles on this subject…and personal preference…would you organize the study by naming and discussing each principle and then how it applies to organization or would you just list/ elaborate on each principle and then explain how they all apply to modern christian organizations at the end..,,,,or some other way….thanks
Uhhh…the Proverbs are in the Old Testament, which is shared by both Judaism and Christianity, although Christ superseded the Old Testament (which is why it’s called, the New Testament).
Why not look at Christ’s life as a very practical leadership lesson. I mean, he was extremely patient and loving towards anyone who wanted to become a better person, and also those who committed evil out of ignorance. He “spoke the truth to Power”, which takes a LOT of courage, and leadership to do. Is He not called “the Shepard”? And, remember in the Garden of Gethsemane, even He became fearful? But, He transcended His fear, with Love of Mankind (also called agape’)
