Amen.<br /><br />12b I’ve written to encourage you and to testify that this is God’s genuine good will. Remain firmly established in it!Lane Hill Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12952459499802207852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4364617788458228849.post-30718130275584735192013-10-25T20:40:04.118-07:002013-10-25T20:40:04.118-07:001So I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow eld...1So I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, as well as a partaker in the glory that is going to be revealed: 2 shepherd the flock of God that is among you, exercising oversight,[a] not under compulsion, but willingly, as God would have you; not for shameful gain, but eagerly; 3 not domineering over those in your charge, but being examples to the flock.<br /><br />I especially like verse 3. Those of us that become leaders in the church must remember not to be domineering, but examples. Lead by example. Actions speak louder than words. I have been thinking back on Christian leaders over the years that have influenced me in good ways and I rarely remember what these people said. I remember how they lived, how they loved Jesus Christ and how they treated people.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06596653591301276543noreply@blogger.com
