Thomas, pastor of First Baptist Church of Euless, Texas, and chairman of the Southern Baptist Convention's Executive Committee, said weak churches often are a sign of weak leadership. Thomas, though, told students in a March 29 message not to assume that great leaders are born. Rather, they are often made. Most people aren't natural leaders.
Most real leaders are developed leaders.
Most church leaders have learned to be leaders. They have paid tremendous prices to learn how to lead. I would suggest the library of the Bible. Instead of seeking to learn leadership in seminars and typical pragmatic programs designed to teach leaders in business and other secular pursuits, Thomas said church leaders should find their leadership examples in Scripture. Moses was a great leader.
