A great deal has been written about the need for leadership, and that's appropriate because there is a leadership void in our society. We need more people like Moses who will step forward and take charge.

​

But while we emphasize the need for leadership, I think something needs to be said about the art of following.

​

In every flock, there are more sheep than there are shepherds . And for every person God has gifted to be a leader, there must be dozens of us whom he intends to be followers.

​

It takes a humble, submissive, supportive spirit to be a good follower.

​

Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing,  taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.

And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death—even death on a cross! 

Philippians 2:5-8
