Leading Like Jesus

Part 1 of the series Leading Like Jesus

Pastor Rick begins this series on leadership by looking at how God wants us to be the kind of leader that he's always intended. He teaches that if we are followers of Jesus, God expects us to be a leader to others, and an influencer of others for good. In this message, we look at seven of the leadership principles that Jesus modeled and three secrets of leaders who last for the long haul.

Part 2 of the series Leading Like Jesus

Tom Holladay looks at the miracle of the feeding of the 5000 to show us three of the greatest lessons of leadership. He looks at why God puts us in impossible situations, how God uses what we have for his purposes, and what happens in our challenges when Jesus gets involved. Most importantly, he teaches that leadership starts in the heart as we follow Jesus.

Part 3 of the series Leading Like Jesus

Pastor Rick looks at how to lead others like Jesus in this very powerful message. One of the greatest myths of leadership is that leaders are born -- the fact is, leaders are made by choices and circumstances. Leadership is an unselfish choice and anyone can be a leader if they choose to do certain things. Pastor Rick looks at the seven skills of leadership taught by Jesus, applicable to every area of life, and says that if we do these things, we will be leaders. He closes with the question to his listeners: Am I really willing to choose to be used by God? This sermon will challenge your congregation to be great leaders and people builders in their sphere of influence.

Part 4 of the series Leading Like Jesus

Pastor Rick teaches from Matthew 4:1-11 to illustrate three temptations, and their antidotes, that we can expect to go through if God is going to use us. These tests will show our maturity, our integrity, and our priorities and help us to learn to become people who God will use to lead others.
