The most important aspect of leadership highlighted in scripture is the character of a leader. This course will teach you the essentials to developing your character for leadership.
Topics and questions asked include:
- 20 qualities of a leader
- When you think of your own unique shape (spiritual gifts, heart, abilities, personality, and experience), what is one of your strengths, and how do you see God using that?
- How have you sensed God’s call on your life up to this point? (God’s word, God’s voice, God’s reasons, God’s people, God’s signs, and God’s peace)
