Paul B Thomas 
And when he saw him he had compassion on him ..pouring in oil and wine… and set him on his own beast
(Luke 10:33,34 ).
Leadership is not necessarily in your title, ministry office, ability to preach, command a following or carry a church position. Rather It’s in your ability to get close to folks, understand their problems and work with them until they come out of the hole to the other side. You are a leader because you are close to a person and care. Which means this, folks that build ministries emphasising their titles lose, folks that make it their ministry to build people win. Leadership then, is not necessarily in one’s ability to build a big church but in an observable set of skills, one of which is the ability to get off one’s horse and simply, “care!!
Paul.
