The world of sports is full of leaders. Some leaders manipulate everyone toward their highest performance, while others encourage their teams to success. According to the bible, great leaders have 3 distinct characteristics.

Talking Points:

  • Leaders put their team and coaches first. Mark 9:35
  • Leaders will be imitated. Hebrews 13:7 
  • In leadership, influence wins over power.
