“As a church leader your role is not to transform people. You cannot, and it is offensive to God if you believe you can. Your role is to place people in the pathway of God’s transforming power. Your leadership, preaching, teaching, investing, and counseling are to be instruments God uses for His holy endeavors to transform people.”
As a team we are reading through a book called Transformational Discipleship written by Geiger, Kelley, and Nation. I don’t always love reading “Jesus books” as I call most Christian books :) But I have really enjoyed this book. I am challenged that our ministry has to be constantly pointing people back to Jesus. It is not about us, it is not about them, it is about Jesus, who He is and what He has done. Such a good reminder.
