People Of Faith Speak To Their Times And Ours
People often have a rather elevated view of leaders. They tend to regard leaders as persons who are larger than life. Leaders are thought to be people of unique talents presented with unique opportunities. Often people will say, "If only I had been born back in those days, I might have done something." "If only I had more physical strength, or more money, or more education, I might do something significant." I know that is the way people think about leadership, because I have felt that way myself. And I'm here to tell you that just isn't the way it is.
