Plus, we'd have the additional benefit of being well educated and well rounded. Ideas have consequences. The Samaritan Strategy, many Christians, particularly those with a strong theological or political orientation, are anxious to lead but unwilling to earn the right through service. They want a big following or to be elected to Congress because of their superior ideas. What they do notice is that you have your own agenda and don't seem particularly concerned about helping them formulate or advance their own.
Leadership is earned through service.
When we serve, we volunteer to take responsibility for whatever it is we've volunteered for. Thus, the more responsibility we take and discharge well, the more authority we're granted. Many leaders, in seeking to serve God, eventually tend to confuse their will with the Almighty's. Lest we think too much of ourselves and our mission, let us remind ourselves that we are but briefly passing and thus will be briefly used. If we focus on Solomon's advice, the rest will, in God's sovereign hands, fall into place.
