Principles of servant leadership
|
Scripture provides the foundation for understanding the function of servant leadership, an essential blueprint for all those practicing leadership in the church. Scripture shows that all members of the church - clergy and laity - are under the authority of the written commandment, bound by duty and personally accountable to its directive for the community.

When we consider servant leadership from a biblical perspective, humility and authority are critical. As a servant leader, what does it mean to be humble? As a servant leader, what does it mean to exercise authority? And what does it look like when we do both? To be a servant leader is to live in obedience to the commandments of Jesus Christ, and to exercise Christlike authority and humility no matter what our station.
