Worth Following

October 4, 2010 in Church,God,Leadership with 4 Comments

Leadership is the current hot topic in church lingo.

Everybody wants to be a leader.

This verse has been running through my mind lately:

1 Cor. 11:1

Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ.

Paul understood that the church in Corinth looked at him as their spiritual leader. But Paul followed just as much as he lead. Paul was worthy of following because he followed Christ’s example.

God has me asking myself this question everyday…

Am I worthy of following?

In other words, am I imitating Christ to the extent that others can point to me and say, “I want to follow his example because he is following Jesus.”

Are you worthy of following?

    Thanks for those thoughts. I have been rethinking some personal definitions of leadership and this was a great reminder.

    People buy into a leader before they buy into where he/she is leading
