leadership
Leaders are people who have an innate ability to attract people to the project in which the leader is involved.
Leaders are people who make things happen.
According to the New Testament, spiritual leaders are empowered by the Holy Spirit to become servant-leaders, leaders who lead by serving.
God has blessed Hope Community with many fine leaders. Those listed here are just a few.
