The books that we were required to read for Bible 115 class were Engaging God’s World – A Christian Vision Of Faith, Learning And Living by Cornelius Plantinga Jr. and The Call – Finding And Fulfilling The Central Purpose For Your Life by Os Guinness. Both books offered very useful advice for today’s Christians. Engaging God’s World is written for students and will help them make sense of their education in a Christian perspective. Both authors use scripture, humor and common sense to validate their points.…

Frederick Douglass said, “He who will, intelligently, lay down his life for his country, is a man whom it is not in human nature to despise”. This quote is a direct reference to what servant leaders are. They have a great desire to serve and work for the benefit of others. They share their power with their followers and ensure that their followers most important needs are met.…
Introduction In the realm of leadership theories and practices, one concept that has gained significant attention is that of the leader as a servant. Robert K. Greenleaf, in his thought-provoking article "The Servant as Leader," explores this idea and its potential implications. As we delve into the essence of servant leadership, we discover its compelling elements and consider its future trajectory in the dynamic world of leadership. The Leader as Servant The notion of a leader as a servant challenges traditional hierarchical structures and emphasizes the importance of humility, empathy, and service. It posits that true leadership is not about wielding power and authority, but rather about selflessly serving others.…
In this reading, Robin Wilson explains servant leadership as if compares and contrasts to others types of leadership. To begin, “servant leadership [means] that great leaders must first serve others and this simple fact is central to his or her greatness” (Wilson, 1998, p. 6). Specifically, accosting to Greenleaf, ‘“[servant leadership] begins with the natural feeling that one wants to serve first, then conscious choice brings one to aspire to lead. The difference manifests itself in the care taken by the servant-first to make sure that other people's priority needs are being served. The best test is: Do those served grow as persons; do they, while being served, become healthier, wiser, freer, more autonomous, more likely themselves to become…

After reading this book, I realized that I already use a lot of the things that Focazio focuses on. I decided I would use this assignment to reveal what I do when I’m not being a fulltime student. Since I can remember, I was raised to be a super hero. I was raised in a life where magic wasn’t a myth and extraordinary powers were a common everyday thing. I decided to go through things in the book I liked a lot and relate them to things I’ve learned from becoming the hero that I am today. I’ll begin with Focazio’s first of the three keys to unlock the problem of job dissatisfaction. You have to have fun to become successful. Being a superhero isn’t all the hype it’s made up to be. There is a lot of hard work that goes into training not only your body but also your mind. When I started, my Sifu asked me why I wanted to become a superhero (…it begins with yourself). He also told me that whatever motivates me to become the man I am going to be; I must have positive motivation (When is motivation effective?). He then went further into detail about the motivations I should stay away from. He told me the positive motivations were the ones that got me through life and not just the day (Short-term motivators vs. long-term motivators). I told him my motivation was to defend the good against the bad at all costs. I wanted to lay my life down on the line for those who couldn’t defend themselves against the bullies. I knew what lied ahead of me when I made this decision…well I thought I knew. After my conversation with my Sifu that night, I flew to my favorite spot, at that point-in-time, and meditated about the hardships to come. Even though I knew the times would be hard, I turned them into positive emotions and quickly learned to love what I do and have fun (Don’t YOU be the source of demotivation).…
This paper will discuss three important elements of business communications as outlined in Chapter Five of the textbook, “Organizational Management and Leadership, A Christian Perspective” (Satterlee, 2009) and relate those elements to Chapters One and Two of the book “Resilient Leaders” (Dees, 2013). First, exceptional listening skills are essential for business leaders to facilitate effective responses to crises. Second, presentation substance, liken to competence, builds trust and credibility during stable times as well as times of crisis. Finally, leaders must understand the impact of their actions on encouraging organizational norms that result in a corporate culture of positive behaviors based on pure motives, especially during crises.…
Perhaps the lesson given the most support throughout the course of this semester is the healthy church is a church whose members are devoted to prayer.1 Powerful movements and spiritual breakthrough happen when one spends time in prayer, often accompanied by fasting. It is also significant to realize the importance of praying as one body. The Holy Spirit is not bound by doctrinal position, popular opinion, or denomination allegiance.2 Prayer is essential, another essential spiritual practice, that is often misunderstood, is worship.…
Most leadership theories, transformational, transactional and laissez – faire focus on the development and motivating the followers. But they gave less attention towards spirituality. Many studies have been done in order to find the impact of leadership styles on the employee performance and how it can be used to improve the organizational outcomes. Spirituality is considered to be the innercore of leadership. Spirituality is something that is beyond the self. Leaders today, losing the values, morals, mission and vision to do the work. Spirituality is what deals with the improvement of personal values and understanding of self and work towards the integration of self and group development. As Fairholm (1996) worked on spiritual leadership having…
A leader is defined by Webster’s Dictionary as a “guide” or a “directing head or chief”. Throughout this study there will be many examples of Jesus’ strong leadership skills.
